| Origami Storybook by Florence Sakade, 1960 | |||||||
| 'Origami
Storybook' by Florence Sakade was published by Charles
Tuttle and Company Ltd in Tokyo and Vermont in 1960. It
is a book of children's stories illustrated by
paperfolds. As well as folding instructions, the work
contained folded copies of the paperfolds, which were
glued onto decorative pages. I have not reproduced the stories or the decorative pages. This page only provides details of the folding instructions. Many of the designs are cut and/or decorated (with eyes).The work includes two designs which are simple symmetrical fold and cut designs and does not distinguish between these and the other designs in any way. I am grateful to the British Origami Society for allowing me access to a copy of this work. **********
