(La Jolla, The Green Tiger Press, 1986). Small 4to; laminated pictorial boards; very slightly bumped at lower extremities; pictorial endpapers; laminated pictorial dustwrapper, top edge of which a little creased; pp. 128, including index. Numerous colour plates and lines drawings. Very good condition. "The Teenie Weenies Book includes a biography of the artist/writer, an essay on the fascination of tiny people in general, a sketch of Teenie Weenie customs and culture, a survey of Donahey's 56-year newspaper career, summaries of all his books, and a glance at his advertising art. Profusely illustrated with over 50 colour plates and dozens of line drawings, this volume gathers together a vast array of Donahey's extraordinary art from a variety of sources. The book includes pictures from his personal archives, some never previously published. Visually dazzling and fully documented, The Teenie Weenies Book is a treasure trove of nostalgia." .
