Paper Folding and Cutting: A Series of Foldings and Cuttings Especially Adapted to Kindergartens and Public Schools


First Edition. Boston: The Prang Educational Company, 1892.

Softcover 12mo, 7.25 x 5.25 inches, 45pp. Illustrated in b&w. Good condition with discoloration to the wraps, neatly rebacked with matching paper spine, small chip at the top corner. Contents with mild age toning but crisp and clean. Published by Ball to help students learn geometrical shapes and their applications in pattern and design. "Children would easily follow a dictation which would result in an octagon, hexagon, pentagon, etc., but were unable to repeat it the following day. After various unsuccessful attempts to simplify the method of drawing these figures, my attention was called to paper folding and cutting. The ease and interest with which the children would make the four-pointed star, the four-leaved rosette, and the equilateral triangle, as outlined by The Prang Course of Drawing, suggested that possibly other figures... might be made in a similar manner." Scarce, with just 8 copies in OCLC.
