This
page is being used to collect information about the
history of the cut paperfolding design known as 'Le Cri
Du Veau' / Trumpet / Flute. 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. ********** 1923 As far as I know the earliest appearance of a version of this design is as 'The Humming Flute' in 'Falten und Formen mit Papier' by Richard Rothe which was published by Deutscher Verlag für Jugend und Volk in Vienna and Leipzig in 1923. This version is however, as the illustration below shows, made in two parts. ********** 1924 The earliest appearanvce of the more familiar one-part design is sd 'Le Cri Du Veau' in 'Joujoux En Papier' by Tom Tit, which was published in Paris by Paul Lechevalier in 1924.
********** The design also appears: 1928 In 'Fun with Paperfolding' by William D Murray and Francis J Rigney, which was published by the Fleming H Revell Company, New York in 1928, as 'The Trumpet'. The author suggests that the sound may be amplified by attaching a paper cone around the stem of the Trumpet. ********** 1939 As 'A Toy Trumpet' in 'Fun with Paper' by Joseph Leeming, which was published by Spencer Press Inc in Chicago in 1939. ********** 1949 As 'Un Cri d'Animal' in 'Au Pays des Mains Agiles', which was published by Editions Fleurus in Paris in 1949 ********** 1951 As 'La Chifla' (The Whistle) in the extended version of 'El Mundo de Papel' by Dr Nemesio Montero, which was published by G Miranda in Edicions Infancia in Valladolid in 1951. ********** In the October 1951 issue of the American magazine 'Children's Digest.
