TIP + TOP AT THE ZOO KUBASTA POP UP FIRST EDITION
|
| Dateline: Dated 1961 |
Item# 34823 |
TIP TOP AT THE ZOO is a wonderful example of the rarer KUBASTA feats of paper-engineering. Artia/Bancroft 1961 Prague.. First scene entrance to the zoo : Three moving parts including boy being chased by croc : boy's neck needs strengthening.This appears to be a fault in the construction of the piece. It does happen. Next scene is in the zoo with the lions on a high point, the other animals at various levels and the two lads below. Third scene shows the lads with other animals and one on a camel. Next is in the jungle with birds, snakes twisted around trees, crocs on the prowl and the lads peeping out from behind trees. A lovely complex scene.Next is with the sea-lions, etc. On many levels again and with VK on the side.The last is with the elephants, etc. and with another dimension behind a drop=down door. All the scenes in this book are terrific And to find one in such good complete condition is almost a miracle.
Condition: Very Good. The only fault has been noted above. Once the neck has been strengthened and the figure lies in his proper position, it will be fine. So often these complex books are in a very poor state, this is a noble exception
Dimensions: 10" x 10"
