Do you remember 'The Borrowers' by Mary Norton? Borrowers are still alive & well in the 21st century but YOUR help is needed to ensure their survival! The Society for the Preservation of Borrowers (SPoB) has been founded to further their cause. The pioneers of upcycling need YOU!

Full description
Based on the Borrowers books by Mary Norton, each Friend of the Borrowers Membership Packet includes:
- Issue 1 of 'Borrowed Time'
- NEW ADDITION a credit card-sized mini magnifying sheet to aid reading of 'Borrowed Time'!
- An integral membership card (to detach from packaging) with space to add date joined
- An upcycled badge, made from a vintage copy of the original Borrowers book, and hand-stamped with the SPoB logo, 'Borrowers Recycle!' - each badge unique & will vary slightly from those shown
Borrowed Time is an 8-page micro-zine (approx. 5.25 x 7.45 cm) printed on recycled newsprint paper. The print really is tiny - use the magnifier provided to avoid eye strain. The penny shown in pic 2 is NOT included in, but shown to demonstrate scale of print.
In this issue of Borrowed Time:
- '...like bread's for butter' - an editorial about contemporary Borrower life & the growing dangers of illegal Borrower farms
- a Borrowed chronology - listing of Borrowers in literature
- Do you believe in Borrowers? - a feature article covering the Borrowers' Lilliputian ancestry, Borrowers in literature, advice on living in harmony with Borrowers, plus the likelihood of Borrower colonisation in your own home
- the SPoB mission statement
Please note, reports on Borrower farming & other instances of Borrower-cruelty may be distressing to younger readers. SPoB as an entity is aimed at adult followers of the cause.
