I got so excited when he pulled out the Alice's Adventure in Wonderland book. I still have it, but unfortunately I used it so much when I was a kid that some of the pop up parts ripped. It was always such a magical book to me.
I bought this book after this video :) I thought it would be impossible to find and crazy expensive, but luckily it was not the case. This book is a great fun. :)
Robert Sabuda's pop up books are incredible feats of paper engineering. If you ever have the chance, please look at his pop up book for The Wizard Of Oz, the hot air balloon is absolutely breath-taking!
Don’t get me wrong…this is one of my favorite channels. I rewatch all these videos all the time. With that said, there is something inherently funny about two scholarly gentlemen analyzing something that was probably made for kids.
That Da Vinci book is WOW! Very thoughtful book as he deserved. Winter to spring is very interesting concept; bright colourful animals on white plains snow which becomes bigger on each page and finished with a whisper sound of spring 🌱 but the last one, Alice in Wonderland, is the magnificent one. Anyway I love all books that you guys showed. Thanks.
I HAD THIS (the alice in wonderland) BOOK OMG!!!! My parents bought it me for christmas when i was younger! Also i remember parts of the paper had soft felt on it, like the cat and other animals their fur was felt so it was soft to touch.
Glad to see from the comments that I'm not the only one who has (or had) the Alice in Wonderland pop up book. It's a great version of the story, my favourite page is probably the arc of playing cards over Alice.
I remember reading the Alice one when I was around 7 years old, 100% the reason why I enjoy these types of books so much. Awesome to see the book again!
Sadly only one popup remains in my collection although it was the oldest with a Copyright of 1951 (may be a bit younger but aging and its presence in family puts it atleast in the early 60s and probably wasn't brand new when bought or received) called The way we Travel, unfortunately theres no photo option for TH-cam but it's full of atomic age art with my favourite scene being the Space port, naturally it needs repairs (which I'm looking at doing very carefully) but I'd never get rid of it.
I have never seen such wonderful pop up books as these.. It makes me wonder how in the world one goes about the business of designing them.. I reckon one does it in reverse.. Starting with the unfolded page, and working backwards.. Even so, the mind BOGGLES at the inventiveness and skill on show here.. Marvellous! 👍
"Heeeeey! It's a pop-up!" 😉 Edit: one of my most favorite things ever when I was little was this book that was a popup paper Victorian dollhouse. That thing was amazing. I recently found it again on Amazon. Haven't bought it, but I'm so glad it's still around.
I'm a graphic design and illustration student, and for my degree I have an art project to do, I'm creating a pop up book about architecture and enigma, and seeing this video made me realize how bad I am in pop up :') (2 months to do the project, so 2 months to learn how to do pop up)

Are you from the uk? I remember in primary school we had books like this
Same with me !!!!
This seems a little different to the one I had, the last pages atleast! But the best memories with this book ever
I have the same book too! I have other pop up books stored in the apartment but they’re all torn up now. :(
@@agquiz1847 No. I'm from the United States. My music teacher had gifted it to me, so I'm not sure where she had got it from.
Gerard always brings such amazing books, love when he stops by!
That Da Vinci book is the first thing that tim has shown in his videos that I actually own. I have to say it's a strange feeling
epic
Where did you get it
@@LaaidiSafia I think it was at a book fair years ago (probably around 2010-2012) I'm not sure if it's still in print
I bought this book after this video :) I thought it would be impossible to find and crazy expensive, but luckily it was not the case. This book is a great fun. :)
Same with the hugging salt and pepper shakers in that one video
It's so satisfying when you see the thing you own in one of his videos
The person who designed that DaVinci pop-up book deserves a recognition for also being a great engineer.
The Alice in wonderland book blows my mind it looks fantastic!
Wonderful to see Gerard back! I bet if Gerard had a bookshop, it would be as wonderfully fantastic as Tim's Toyshop!
I've had fairly simple pop up books as a kid. Never have I seen such an amazing work of art like that Alice in Wonderland book!
These two are birds of a feather

I had that Alice book at one point! Saw the thumbnail, and a childhood memory flooded back

Robert Sabuda is a genius. by far my favorite pop-up artist
Such lovely collection of books! 😊
I like whenever Mr. Darby shows up.
Mr. Gerard Darby returns to share some more of his own delightful collection with us! Thank you to him and the Grand Illusions team. ^_^
Two individuals sitting admiring and complementing pop-up books is so lovely
Lovely books. That was very interesting to see and nice to watch.
hey, just wanted to say your videos make me really happy and refill my sense of wonder. thanks for that.

The best creativity i have ever seen in my life
Another amazing sets shown here

That last book was awesome.
I love Tim and Gerard, they are amazing.
I have the wizard of oz version of pop-up book! So cool!
The Hot Air Balloon pop up blows my mind in that book. Robert Sabuda is a genius!

Actually I got a pop up handbook to make my own pop ups.
Wow . These are amazing work.
I'm all smiles Thanks for sharing today, it made my day.
Those pop-up books are fantastic!
I'd be terrified to open them, lest they fall apart, lol.
My favourite one: Birdscapes by Miyoko Chu, it comes with stereo sound!
I'd love to see how they actually manufacture these pop up books!
I had an alice in wonderland pop up book too, though it was different. It had a lot of the same elements.
That wonderland pop-up is amazing!
Magnificent piece of books
I love pop-up books, too!
Li voglio tutti , sono stupendi 😲
MY GRANDMA HAS THE ONE IN THE THUMBNAIL
I adore cool popup books! I had to click this video 👍🏻❤️
As acollector of over 100 pop-upbooks it is alwaygood tosee some that I don't have. Sabuda is also my favorite engineer.
These books remind me of the intricate engineering of Lovepop greeting cards.
Good morning everyone!
Wonderful...more please x
Amazing.
My favorite is the book of plants/flowers.
wow .... how wonderful ..i realy want to buy some books like these 🤩🤩🤩🤩
I LOVED pop up books
Nostalgia
5:10 that's the prototype to modern battle tanks. Da Vinci was a genius!
Great video
"Heeeeey! It's a pop-up!" 😉
Edit: one of my most favorite things ever when I was little was this book that was a popup paper Victorian dollhouse. That thing was amazing. I recently found it again on Amazon. Haven't bought it, but I'm so glad it's still around.
Once I opened the first page I'd be too terrified to close it again, for fear that my clumsy hands would ruin it!
lots of exploring to do later on
Wholesome

i used have book like that, the story about 3 little pig and the wolf :)
Something to explore later.
If you want to see a very unique pop up book check out the Automaton of Shale from Chip Theory Games
Nice to see a couple of gentlemen having a bit of chin wag over some pop up books
el libro de Alicia es hermoso!!! 😍
Nice
Amazing..
That is great
When is a raven like a writing desk?
I just bought the Alice book for my niece..
You can buy a reprint of the Alice in Wonderland.
Wow
