1914

Diagrams for a compound horse, made in three pieces, appear in 'Zhe zhi tu shuo' (Illustrated Paperfolding), compiled by Gui Shaolie, which was published by the Commercial Press in Shanghai in Ming guo 3 (1914). The instructions explain how to make the body. The head and tail are not explained. The head, however, looks like a Boat with Sail.
