A Mushroom ABC. by Peter and Donna Thomas
For the beginning of summer, MiniMondays is going to have a series focusing on a small fraction of the lovely artists books by Peter and Donna Thomas!
For our book after a long weekend, we have some lovely illustrations of mushrooms in an ABC accordion book!
"Printed watercolors on one side of an accordion folded handmade sheet (50 x 150 mm.), shaped to resemble a mushroom. First and last folded leaves mounted on two paper boards, covered with gray paper, and also shaped as a mushroom. Title paper label on front cover. Issued in a slipcase covered with paper and with a mylar front cover that reveals the shaped binding."--Catalog
Peter and Donna Thomas are "book artists from Santa Cruz, CA. They work both collaboratively and individually; letterpress printing, hand-lettering and illustrating texts, making paper, and hand binding both fine press and artists’ books." They have made over 100 limited edition books, often with Peter making the paper, and Donna doing the illustrations.
Check out more of Donna and Peter's books at Uiowa here.

Dear Tiny me
Thank you, tiny me
For helping me
Take care of me
I always forget to eat
Veggies and fruit
But shaped like a bunny
They'll taste so good
So hard to have enough to drink
But put in a sippy
Sparkly and pink
And you'll help me
Thank you, tiny me
For helping me
Take care of me

Olympic stamps / [edited by Kazimir Rapoša ; text by Tomaž Zajc ; translated by Martin Cregeen].
In honor of the upcoming summer Olympics, we here at Special Collections and Archives thought it would be fun to take a look back at previous Olympics through the miniature book Olympic Stamps! This book contains Olympic stamps dating all the way back to the 1800s.
Spanning many countries, including Finland, Mexico, and of course Greece. These stamps perfectly encapsulate their hosted summer or winter Olympics.
So take a look at these awesome stamps and get excited for the upcoming events (and hopefully a new, amazing stamp)!

We recently found this "dummy" for the @knollinc tabloid from the 1970s. The tabloid was meant to be a change from the sleek brochures of the 1960s and have an underground paper feel of the 1970s. It was also the first tabloid printed in four colors!

Our #TinyTuesday offering this week is too small for its own woodcuts, but no matter. We think they look just fine sideways, don't you?
