It would be great to see more of the Tress collection digitised. Digital copies of both Origami Moyo volumes ... in a larger format ... are however already available in the Pulverer Collection ... see https://pulverer.si.edu/node/787/title?f%5B0%5D=dateNormalized%3A1935 (Incidentally I have looked through the entire Pulverer collection and taken copies of all the prints relating to origami, of which there are many. Not all of these are yet integrated into the pages on my site, however.) >For much more about Origami moyo?, Books One and Two, see David Mitchell's >invaluable posts at Origami Heaven: http://www.origamiheaven.com/historyorigamimoyobookone.htm https://www.origamiheaven.com/historyorigamimoyobooktwo.htm Hmmm ... yes. I have recorded what I know, or can find out, about Origami Moyo ... but the pages still need a lot of work. If anyone can help identify the designs, or anyone who speaks Japanese can help me add further information about the page titles, that would be great. Incidentally, Origami Moyo was known to Gershon Legman in 1952 and was included in his bibliography. Dave
