| This
page is being used to collect information about the
history of the two-part modular paperfolding design known
as Eight Triangles, which is a derivative of the Eight
Squares design.. 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. ********** 1894 As far as I know this design first appears in an article by J Marteau in Manuel General de L'Instruction Primaire of July 1894. It is a variation of Eight Squares made by using a third square of paper to conceal part of the eight squares.
********** The design also appears: 1897 In 'Pliage et Decoupage du Papier' by C Savineau, which was published by Librairie Hatchette et Cie in Paris in 1897.
********** 1900 In an article in El Monitor 331 of 30th September 1900 (which is a translation of several chapters of Savineau).
