history of Slit and Stretch Paper Garlands. Please
contact me if you know any of this information is
incorrect or if you have any other information that
should be added. Thank you. ********** 1932 As far as I know the first appearance of the paper garland made by alternatively gluing the centres and corners of slit squares together is in 'Winter Nights Entertainments' by R M Abraham, which was first published by Constable and Constable in London in 1932.
********** The same design appears: 1960 As 'Christmas Garlands' in 'Paper Folding Fun' by Robert Harbin, which was published by Oldbourne in London in 1960.
********** 1961 An essentially similar design appears in 'Wir Falten' by Joachim Schönherr and Gerta Schumann, which was published by Rudolf Arnold Verlag in Leipzig in 1961.
