DescriptionFrom Sam Ita--the virtuoso paper engineer behind our successful "Moby-Dick," "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea," and "Frankenstein" pop-up books--comes a playful and beautiful new creation: a complete, standard-size chess set. Made of durable cardstock, the already-assembled and magnetized pieces "pop" easily into place when the folds are opened. This totally innovative kit comes with a 48-page instructional book that explains the basic rules of the game and offers tips for more advanced players. Includes: Author descriptionSam Ita studied graphic design at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York, and apprenticed for five years with Robert Sabuda and Matthew Rhinehart on best-selling pop-up titles including "America the Beautiful," "Encyclopedia Prehistorica," "Mommy," and Christmas cards for the Museum of Modern Art. His creations for Sterling include "Christmas Tree In-a-Box" and "Van Gogh's Sunflowers In-a-Box." He lives in Brooklyn, New York. |
