I would really love someone to do a book about these books, leading into the use of this puppet imagery in Viewmasters (which I collect), advertisements in the 60’s – they had a bunch of these puppet images and, I recently found a company cookbook who did it for Christmas advertisemen and know it was a fad for a couple of years. Yesterday I came across a Japanese magazine (can’t read it, just can see the photos) of one of these artists who did the Little Match Girl). Aldo, a few years ago someone started doing classics in children’children’s board books with felted puppets. Anyone want to try to collect information and images to do this? Anyone know where to start?

I do remember having one of these books. I absolutely love children’s literature, and vintage children’s books are just the icing on the cake for me. What a treasure, and what a find. Thanks for bringing back some memories and sharing your lovely collection with us.

Our county library in my tiny Tennessee town had those growing up (I was a kid in the 80’s)! I loved them, and checked them out repeatedly. I wonder if they still have them…
