Sad that it's out of print. . .

because this is a very useful book to anyone who loves to create miniatures from scratch and from found objects. Helen Ruthberg was one of the originators of trash-to-treasure miniatures back in the 1970's and 1980's when 1/12TH scale dollhouses, room settings and miniatures were the rage in this country. Many newer books on the craft of 1/12TH scale minis are based on some of her ground-breaking ideas. The craft and craze of making to-scale miniatures is still alive and still attracting new addicts. Though the rage phase died long ago, this book, even now, is a useful item for any miniaturist to have on his or her bookshelf. Get one if you can. You won't regret having it.
