Ajouter au panier4to. 7.25 x 8.75 in. [10 pp (unpaginated).], bifolium leaves, w/ 5 large double-page pop-up paper engineered moveables (minor damage to 1). Quarter light-green cloth over colour-printed boards (minor edgewear, light rubbing, very slight bumping to couple corners), still VG copy. First edition of this delightful and early Peter Lukes pop-up featuring Kenny the Kangaroo taking a tour through Animalia, with sliding pop-ups of elephants, tigers, macaws, giraffes, snkes, monkeys, crocodiles, rhinos hippos & cheetahs. Lukes (1923-1976) began as a set designer for Barandov Film Studios, but ran afoul of the Czech Communist Party in 1948, and so eventually became a children's book illustrator winning an Artia house contest in 1960, followed by his successful pop-up series.
