Mite. Grimsby: E. A. Robinson, 1896. 20 x 17mm. Text border and initials printed in red, 6 plates. Original red cloth. Reprint, with "Copy accepted by Her Majesty" at the end. Bondy p.99: "[The first edition of 1891] remained for many years the smallest English book printed from movable type and may in fact still deserve that distinction ... In the reprint of 1896 the printer states on the last leaf 'Copy accepted by Her Majesty', in other words Queen Victoria. The Mite also forms part of Queen Mary's celebrated Dolls' House Library"; cf. Spielmann 376; Welsh 5069.
