Oh, Deer!

This 1590 hunting book (French but verteuscht) starts with the tracking basics, but ends up somehow with a cervine ghost on its hands... then there's the relic-like presentation of the disembodied horn trophies! i-share-nby.primo.exlibrisgrou

Natural Disasters, 1843 Edition

Chapbook from Vienna lamenting an earthquake that took out 3/4 of the houses on the Lesser-Antilles isle of Guadaloupe, and all the churches, except one with a clock stuck at the time of impact! More eerily familiar bad old days reporting here: (Case Wing ZC 1 .19 no. 47)

@gairdeachas If you like libraries, while in check out the Newberry Library and its fantastic exhibition on historical engineered books (aka pop-up books)!

What Have We Here?

Maybe the best response to a virtual class visit, EVER?
I did show up (as requested) in a Marie Antoinette wig to discuss ephemeral erotica about her, and (of course), to plug our Pop-Up Book exhibition at !

I got to be a talking head! About Pop-Up Books, in front of a HUGE set of Coronelli Celestial Globe Gores!
Glad I had my Dürer apocaleisure wear on!

Our exhibition continues at through July 15!
