Books about paperfolding come in many interesting varieties but few are as intriguing as one published in Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania, USA in 1894 titled ‘Old Glory: The Flag of Our Country’ by Albert Elias Maltby. If it weren’t for the subtitles, ‘A Study in History and a Lesson in Paperfolding: Also Some Easy Lessons in Cutting and Folding', you wouldn’t know it was about paperfolding at all. The author, Dr Albert Elias Maltby’s, main concern seems to be to promote his patriotic views, and in particular to advocate for the inclusion of a ceremony for ‘the salutation of the flag’ in American schools, but, somehow, he becomes distracted, or perhaps just needs filler, and adds information about paperfolding, and, indeed, about origami as well.
