The booklet open to a tipped in page of text with “Dantino 1878” at the bottom.

Zoomed detail of the page with “CANTO XXXI” at the top. The text is in a very small type.

Back cover of the booklet with the credit “Arno Gschwendtner”.

Book people have their own conclave. Each year the Miniature Book Society gathers to exchange ideas.

This tiny gem issued at the 2017 Conclave XXXV in Oakland includes a leaf from Dante’s Devine Comedy printed by G. Gnocchi in 2-point Didot type.
