Book description
Originally published in the 1940s, the author, a master of his craft,
has clearly and concisely explained the making of both hand and string
puppets, and also clearly shown how they may be used in appropriate
settings. With the idea of giving asistance to the novice, and help to
the more advanced student, the book is written in plain and concise
language the diagrams and photographs should explain the intricacies of
puppet-making, leaving the individual to fill in the details from his
own imagination. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating
back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly
expensive. Hesperides Press are republishing these classic works in
affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and
artwork. Contents Include: Glove Puppets String Puppets Puppets with
