Funny Toys (1969)

 


A couple of pages from a "paper-craft" book published in Estonia. I love the style of these rocket images.

Eva Lootsar. Drawings by Lilian Harm. Funny Toys. Tallinn : Kunst. 12 p. 28 x 21 cm. 1969.



There is no text in the book except a short introduction about crafting with paper.

Fun with Dots (1962)



Happy Holidays!
So this is my Christmas post for you all. An activity book for you to play with after the presents are all opened.  This is another bit of ephemera that I have "saved" from obscurity because of its space content.

Fun with Dots. Drawings by Hedwig Wylie. Racine, WI. Watkins-Strathmore Co. 27 cm. (96 p.) 1962.

Only the first few pages are space related but wonderful to see. At the end of this post is your special present!







 OK, it is a turtle, I just liked it :)

I did not say it was much of a present but holidays and surprises go together.  Have a Happy New Year, see you in 2020.
