Thank you. ********** 1907 A far as I know this design first appears as 'Bonete' (Cap) in an article titled 'El trabajo manual escolar' by Vicente Casto Legua in the January 1907 issue of the Spanish magazine 'La Escuela Moderna' which was published in Madrid by Los Sucesores de Hernando. I am not convinced that this hat is actually wearable. ********** 1923 As 'Bonete' in 'Trabajos Manuales y Juegos Infantiles' by Francisco Blanch, which was published by I. G. Seix y Barral Hermanos S.A.- Editores in Barcelona in 1923. ********** c1929 As 'El Bonete' in Booklet 3 of 'Trabajos Manuales Salvatella - Plegado de figuras de papel', which was published by Editorial Miguel A Salvatera in Barcelona around 1929. ********** 1939 The same design also appears as 'El bonete del cura' (The Curate's Hat) in 'El Mundo de Papel' by Dr Nemesio Montero, which was published by G Miranda in Edicions Infancia in Valladolid in 1939. ********** 1940 The design also appears as 'Birrete de Obispo' (Bishop's Cap) in 'El Plegado y Cartonaje en la Escuela Primaria' by Antonio M Luchia and Corina Luciani de Luchia, which was published by Editorial Kapelusz in Buenos Aires in 1940. ********** 1941 As 'El Bonete' in 'Papiro-Zoo: Manual practico de cocotologia o papirologia' by Giordano Lareo, which was published by Larco in Buenos Aires in 1941. ********** 1951 The same design, called 'Bonete' and a simple variation, called 'Gorro Cuartelero' appear in 'Papiroflexia' by Elias Gutierrez Gil, which was self-published in 1951 ********** 1952 As 'Boneto' in 'Una Hoja de Papel' by Lorenzo Herrero, which was published by Miguel A Salvatella in Barcelona in 1952. ********** |
