(16)pp. This curious book was sponsored by Eben Thompson and was intended to accompany The Rose Garden of Omar Khayyam, which was “the smallest book in the world” at the time. The text is the familiar nursery rhyme by Sarah Josepha Hale, and this micro-miniature edition is the smallest ever printed of the famous poem. Printed from type and bound in brown paper wrappers. Fine. 3/8 x 1/2 in.
