Dark green cover of early 19th century account book.
Handwritten page from Thomas Lane's household account book, recording expenditure on servants and on repairs in 1805.
Handwritten entry from Thomas Lane's household account book, giving annual summary of expenditure in 1805.
The household account book of Thomas Lane of Leyton Grange is small rather than truly tiny, but the meticulous entries in his tiny writing fill every page. These examples show expenditure on servants, plus the annual summary of expenses for 1805.

A small rectangular wooden box with brass coloured weights in a variety of shapes. There is a size key at the size indicating that the object is about 10cm long.
Another #EYATiny. This is a little set of brass pharmacy weights. The tiny amounts of ingredients needed to make certain medications required the tiniest weights. The smallest would be grains, drams and scruples

Photo of a small manuscript on a stand, held open to reveal handwritten text.
Thornton's 'Book of Remembrances' is tiny - the cover is 133mm x 96mm but the pages inside are 102mm x 80mm, with some smaller pages stitched in at the back. Despite this it runs to c.28K words.

Microscopic organisms on a black background.
Microscopic organisms on a black background.
For Day 3 of Explore Your Archive Week, we have something very tiny - but also very large!
The Hudson Transparencies are large paintings on paper screens, used as visual aids in the 19th century to teach about microscopic organisms.

Tiny microdots in a rectangular card mount with a transparent window. Below the window, a label reading 'MICRODOTS - MOUNTED / [???] FOUND IN THE HANDBAG / OF MRS KROGER'
Almost certainly the smallest things in our archive are these microdots from the Portland Spy Ring. #EYAtiny #EYA #ExploreYourArchive

A typed page with the headline 'Police Box System', dated 21st May 1933.
The image shows both a closed and open Police Box System Time Schedule. This is a small landscape pamphlet with printed sheets showing duty rosters.
A photo of waht looks like a blue Police Box , but this is actually the TARDIS.
Tomorrow is #DrWhoDay, so here’s Chesterfield Police’s guide to using a Police Box [or the TARDIS?]. You could call the Police, Fire Brigade and Police Ambulance. In a poor area, at night, you could also call doctors, midwives or hospitals! No mention of Daleks.
