Robinson Crusoe
This is a movable paper toy book of verses retelling Robinson Crusoe, published in Boston by L. Prang around 1864 for children. Its hand-coloured pages are shaped as cut-out figures above rhymed stanzas, with small scenes below each verse. A designer might borrow the layered die-cut silhouettes and the simple coloured vignettes for a children's pattern or storybook layout.
