THE VIOLET FAIRY BOOK is a handcrafted, hardbound modified miniature reproduction of The Violet Fairy Book edited by Andrew Lang and illustrated by H.J. Ford originally published in 1906. This volume contains the full text of A Tale of the Tontlawald, The Finest Liar In The World, The Story of three Wonderful Beggars and Schippeitaro with 2 full color plates and 3 large black and white illustrations in 24 pages. This volume measures 31/32 inch high by 25/32 inch wide by 3/16 inch thick. It is constructed using traditional book making techniques and other techniques I have developed for making miniature books. The spine is printed with the title so the volume will look well on a bookshelf. I personally make each book. My miniature books are not intended for children and are not toys. THE PICTURE IS LARGE TO ENABLE CLOSE VIEWING OF THE BOOK DETAILS.
