About this Item

Bound in the finest faux-leather known to 21st-century book miniaturists, this little book distills literary greatness into a format more portable than most matchboxes, and considerably more elegant. Each volume, measuring just 67mm in height, offers classic literature in a format as compact as it is collectible, proof that great ideas needn't demand great shelf space. Ideal for bibliophiles with limited shelf space and unlimited taste. The binding is vinyl styled to resemble leather grain, with printed titles and decorations rather than embossed. Stitched headbands and ivory paper lend a dignified air. Many collectors praise their durability, as more than twenty years on the bindings remain firm and the spines largely unfaded. Just don't expect calfskin; it's more calf-imagined. Size: 52 x 67 mm. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Del Prado Miniature Books; Featured Items; Inventory No: 373607.
