Instruction Manual for the End (of the world) ©1990,  2-7/8 x 2-7/8 x 3/4 inches closed. Copper, plastic dinosaur, fabricated. The head, legs and tail are attached with tiny nuts and bolts. The copper pages were etched in sulfuric acid. I dipped each page in bee's wax and drew on it. The longer you leave the metal in the acid, the more it bites and eventually makes a nice ragged look. The wax also comes off around the edge of the metal, leaving it rough, too.
