The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent condition, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments!
THE AUTHORS of this book have been teaching the subject to children and adults with much success for a number of years and have succeeded in making it interesting to both amateur and professional.
THEY INCLUDE quite simple things like toys, simple puppets and masks which can be made by young children with twisted wire, cut newspaper and paste. Clay modelling including methods of casting, which show how to model a head, a wall decoration and even such a practical and amusing thing as a mould for confectionery.
EACH STAGE is clearly demonstrated photographically and there are many illustrations which will provide numerous suggestions of things to attempt. The authors' text is to the point, and with its aid anyone who is interested in the subject can easily attain competence in an inexpensive and amusing craft.
