Miniature Books/Etcetera...

Marion Vuilleumier has been collecting miniature books since September 1980. Her passion was ignited when she interviewed Miriam Irwin, of Cincinnati, Ohio, publisher of Mosaic Books, at the "Books In The World" television series. Marion now has over 200 tiny tomes, 3" or under, as well as some a bit larger, but very desirable to collectors. One of her most prized books is the 1921 2 3/4" x 1" Rubaiyat Of Omar Khayyam Of Naishapur. She also has five copies of books printed by Achille J. St. Onge, of Worcester. In addition to her miniature book collection, Marion also has many other choice collectible items for sale, including minaitures of the Dead Sea Scrolls in a ceramic urn and authentic copies of miniature oil lamps. If you are interesting in previewing this extensive collection please email Marion directly at: marion.vuilleumier@verizon.net

Note, prices for these tiny books will not be listed. Anyone interested may call 508-775-4811
