Description

Hyperion-Verlag, Freiburg Im Breisgau [Published Date: 1958]. Text in German. Small (3.75 x 2.5”) book with stiff leatherette-coved boards and gold lettering and illustration of a frog perched on 3 leaves on cover. A collection of positive affirmations in a pocket-sized book. Although not technically a “miniature” book (its length is greater than 3”), it is a lovely copy of one of Hyperian-Verlag’s small-scale collectable gift books for which the publisher is so well-known. Binding designed by Werner Bürger.
