Shiba Productions

I wanted to post this link about Shiba Productions earlier, but Blogger has been acting up. Shiba's founder, Kihachiro Kawamoto, created the sets and dolls (or "puppets") for those Hans Christian Andersen*/Golden books--the ones with the 3-D illustrations, and lenticular covers (they look like holograms).

*But not only Hans Christian Andersen.

Thanks, Rose! And thanks to Esmé for "lenticular."

I have a Snow-White book with pictures by Shiba Productions from 1967. I need to get it repaired. Can you suggest a book restoration place in the New York City/New Jersey area? Thank you- I can check back for an answer.
