Item 37 is Charles van Sandwyk's Wee Folk. This short book contains 13 of his etchings, six of them full pages, of strange looking little people.

Item 40 is a single etching from van Sandwyk, hand colored and signed by the author-artist. It can be described as Smoking Mouse. No one warned him of the health risks of his nasty habit. $265.
