Children's Playbook by Aart van Breda, 1955
 
'Children's Playbook' by Aart van Breda was published by Faber and Faber Ltd in London in 1955. It is a translation by W E James of the author's 'Kinderspeelboek' which was originally published by Uitgeverij van Breda in Amsterdam in 1954.

It is almost entirely a work of cardboard modelling and papercraft designs, except for two pages about paper boats and hats.

I am rateul to the British Origami Society for allowing me to see a copy of this work.
