ABC of Birds
Freeville, NY: Carol Schwartzott, 2020. Hardcover. Number 7 of 25 copies signed and numbered by the book artist. This miniature work is a totally charming homage to the beauty of birds and the delight they bring us.

The cards slip into individual translucent paper pockets that form the pages of the book. Each book in the edition is covered in different paper. The book is bound in navy blue cloth covers with paper title labels on the cover and spine. Based on a binding design created by Hedi Kyle. The book pages may be turned like a codex or fanned out from the binding. Housed in a navy blue leaf patterened paper covered slipcase. In fine condition. Measures 2 x 3 x 1.5 inches.
