Mighty Mikko is a 1922 New York collection of Finnish fairy tales and folk tales, compiled by Parker Fillmore for general readers and children. Its pictures are bold black-and-white woodcut-style blocks with angular interlocking shapes, stylised animals and dense linework, useful to designers seeking strong graphic pattern, simplified figures and high-contrast cutout composition.
