MERRY CATMAS!!!

Astronomer Edwin Hubble and his wife, Grace, had an adorable cat. And so their friends Alfred and Maxine Parish made them the above little book, The Life and Times of Nicolas Hubble, Esq., Photograph album of Edwin Hubble’s cat, Nicolas Copernicus.

It’s pretty much the cutest thing in the entire world AND IT’S IN OUR LIBRARY.

(You can read more about how much the Hubbles loved their cat—and see Edwin and Nicolas sitting with an armillary sphere and an orrery—on Verso.)

We thought it was important to remind you that this exists.
