'Living Origami Book 2' by Isao Honda was published by Charles E. Tuttle Co. Inc in Rutland Vermont in 1962. The work includes sheets of decorated square paper, from which the designs are intended to be folded, so that the finished designs have a realistic appearance. The designs the work contains are drawn from Isao Honda's standard repertoire.

I am grateful to the British Origami Society for letting me see a copy of this book.

A low-res copy of the work can be found at the foot of this page.
