About Miniature Books
Minibibliophiles collect miniature books- books which do not exceed a measure of three inches in height or width. What is their appeal? Miniature books are easily described as fine art and sculpture done in a very small scale, small enough to be held in the palm of one's hand. These tiny volumes are prized for their rarity, as well as for their exquisite craftsmanship and their content. Yes, they are meant to be read.
