1:12 scale Les Miserables by Victor Hugo, 1862, dollhouse miniature vintage printed opening book
Each book opens to reveal 20 pages of text (in English) from the first chapter of Victor Hugo's epic novel "Les Miserables." The text is small but readable and the numbered pages turn. Colored end-papers. The cover artwork is from an early 1865 English translation published by Hurst and Blackett. Book measures approximately 1 inch high x 5/8 inch wide x 1/8 inch deep. I make each book by hand, starting with hand-typed and formatted text from the original novels and use only original covers, not modern graphics. Each one is handmade and will vary slightly from picture.
