    Description

    BEOWULF ILLUSTRATED in a handcrafted, hardbound miniature reproduction of the
    Old English
    heroic
    epic poem
    of anonymous authorship. This work of
    Anglo-Saxon literature
    dates to between the 8th and the 11th century.  The item being offered is a miniature book containing the entire epic poem in a volume containing 150 pages in readable type with colorful fly leaves and 7 color illustrations.
    This volume measures 31/32 inch high by 25/32inch wide by ¼ inch thick.
    The pages are printed on acid free calligraphic parchment (24 lbs.) Each page is hand cut.  The covers are printed on 20 lb 96 brightness bond paper over a base of 110 lb cardstock in order to remain in scale. The cover is constructed using traditional bookbinding techniques.  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.
