Item Comment
WITH 51 PICTURE MODELS OF CARS, FIGURES, ETC., FOR ARRANGING IN POSITION TO GIVE A THREE DIMENSIONAL EFFECT. this copy is missing figure 51 HOW TO MAKE UP THE SCENES IN THIS PANORAMA BOOK. YOU WILL FIND IN THIS BOOK FOUR PAGES OF BACKGROUND SCENERY, ALSO SEVERAL PAGES OF MODELS AND FIGURES. THESE ARE PERFORATED, SO THAT THEY CAN BE EASILY DETACHED FROM THE PAGES AND FITTED INTO THEIR PLACES IN THE BACKGROUNDS. EACH OF THE MODELS HAS A FLAP, WHICH, IF IT IS BENT BACK AFTER THE MODEL IS PLACED IN POSITION, WILL HOLD IT SECURE. THE MODELS ARE ALL NUMBERED, AND THERE ARE CORRESPONDING NUMBERS BESIDE THE SLOTS IN THE BACKGROUNDS INTO WHICH THEY ARE FITTED. WHEN ALL THE MODELS HAVE BEEN PLACED IN POSITION YOU WILL HAVE FASCINATING REALISTIC SCENES; AND BY BENDING THE MODELS OUTWARDS A FINE THIRD DIMENSIONAL EFFECT CAN BE PRODUCED.
