Abstract

This issue inaugurates a new section – destined to become a regular feature in forthcoming years – dedicated to collectors of movable books worldwide. The opening contribution is offered by a Chinese pop-up book collector, Guan Zhongpin of Beijing (China), who, through his own collection, outlines a “brief history of Chinese pop-up books,” a subject that has been largely neglected in the scholarly literature.
