My 1:12 Scale replica of Herbal Remedies Culpepper's British Herbal has 12 pages with 8 full color illustrations and measures approximately 11/16 of an inch high by 1/2 of an inch wide. The title is printed prominently on the spine so it will also look GREAT open or closed on a bookshelf. The full size version measured only 5 inches by 4 inches and was published between 1870-1880 and had amazing insight into Victorian medicine, somewhat on a homeopathic scale you might say. People used all naturally occurring plant life to heal, and were quite astute as to what each plant or flower could be put to use. Also contained the Cure for Cancer :D
All my books that are 1/12 scale have miniature hard covers. Most of my miniature books are readable BOOKS. They are printed on both sides of the page with a readable passages drawn from the actual book being depicted. All of my books interior paper, hardcover book board covers, ink and glues are acid-free archival quality. Scaled perfectly for your dollhouse, room box, dollhouse coffee table or a book shelf in your miniature scene. I personally design every book which can take up to 2 hours. I use pages and illustrations from the original books wherever possible.
This is a collectors item and it is not recommended for small children.
