Brown Paper Wrapped Little Leather Library Copy of The Christmas Carol, 1920s shorebird decoy but of course it is

but of course it is the singularities where the greatness is--like the disappearing paw where the boy holds it his white glove

and one patch of paint loss to the background at right

existing in a sort of in between world

With a large ball on top echoing the one inside

which created a record of the progression of women's dress--the backs of these cards reproduce two of those

Brown Paper Wrapped Little Leather Library Copy of The Christmas Carol, 1920s shorebird decoy but of course it isJust for fun, really maybe to put out with the Christmas decorations but you know I can't resist a miniature book with brown paper wrapped cover and hand drawn title, plus THE END in crayon on the back cover. Maybe not the best copy for reading, but good for the miniature book collection anyway The book itself was published by the Little Leather Library Corp, NY, c. 1920s. 4" x 3 1 2" Soft cover, with sandpaper texture to the inside covers, 127 pages.
