OSCAR WILDE : MINIATURE BOOK
The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde : A book in miniature just 67mm tall for readers with grand ambition and modest spatial constraints
Del Prado Spain 2003. Hardcover. Very Good Condition. 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: 373673. This item may require more postage than the rates shown for delivery outside the UK. If extra postage is required we will contact you before processing your order and you will be given the details and option to decline the extra cost. Del Prado hardcover
