Grimsby, England: E. A. Robinson, 1891. 28, [2] pp. 21 x 18 mm. 8 b&w illustrations. Parchment(?) binding with red title on gilt, red edge stain; possibly rebound, as Bondy notes only a blue-wrappered edition. Slight wear to covers, else near fine. (Welsh 5067; Bondy 98-99)
A self-proclaimed "curiosity . . . the smallest [book] ever printed from type in the World." Bondy notes that for many years it remained "the smallest English book printed from movable type and may in fact still deserve that distinction." Uncommon.
