uispeccoll:Miniature Monday Mistletoe : legends, myth & folklore  written & illustrated by Maryline Poole AdamsThis seasonal little book talks about a traditional part of many Midwinter festivals: Mistletoe. It talks about different fact, legends and traditions from around the world, and is illustrated with two color hand cut linoleum block prints. For example, did you know the mistletoe is actually a parasite that grows primarily on oak, but can also be found on willow and poplar trees as well. Think of that next time you find someone to kiss under mistletoe. “Mistletoe was printed letterpress with 6 pt. Deepdene type, and linoleum blocks, on dampened paper handmade at Barcham Green. Design, printing, binding, linoleum blocks, and marbling hand done by M.P. Adams.“ –ColophonThere do not seem to be any mistletoe related traditions that would be any help with finals, but good luck none the less!–Diane R. -- source link
