Article in 'Origami Handicraft', 1941
 

In his 'Nihon no Kokoro Dento Origami', which was published by Japan Publications in Tokyo in 1969, Isao Honda wrote, roughly translated: 'I would like to state that the first works based on this concept (ie making a compound design from two folded sheets) were the 'Peacock' and 'Horse' published in the 1941 issue of 'Origami Handicraft' (published by Kogyo Co Ltd, the predecessor of the current Sangyo Co Ltd).'

I have not seen a copy of this article.
