1951

A design for 'El Faisan' developed from a 19.5 x 11 rectangle which has been cut into a point using two 45 degree cuts at one end appears in 'Papiro-Zoo: Manual Practico de Papirologia o Cocotologia' (revised edition) by Giordano Lareo, which was published by Libraria 'El Ateneo' Editorial in Buenos Aires in 1951. It is a development of the Pavo Real / Peacock design usually attributed to Solorzano.
