Simple cardboard models, Revised ed., Geoffrey Heath Deason, Model & Allied Publications, Hemel Hempstead, 1970.ISBN 0853440298.Previous edition (1958) published as Cardboard engineering withscissors and paste. Cardboard engineering with scissors and paste, Geoffrey HeathDeason, Model Aeronautical Press, 1958. Cardboard ship models, Geoffrey Heath Deason, Model andAllied Publications, Hemel Hempstead, 1972. ISBN 0852423349. from Bob Pounds :Geoffrey Deason was among the doyen of card modelers. His interest stretches back to his boyhood, and over the ensuing years he had a great influence on card modeling both as a practitioner and a promoter. Deason was a regular contributor to a wide range of British modeling magazines, principally those of the old Model and Allied Publications (MAP) stable, and especially "Scale Models". At one time he was editor of the company's "Model Cars" magazine, and I certainly recall his articles in "Model Boats".His major work was a book published in 1958 called "Cardboard Engineering with Scissors and Paste", which was reprinted in 1969 under the title "Simple Cardboard Models". Ninety per cent of the book is devoted to scratch building and covers road and rail vehicles, ships, etc, and usually also dealt with motorising the models, where this was feasible. Curiously, there is no mention of aircraft. Deason was a contemporary of Micromodels' Geoffrey Heighway -- indeed, in the book he has a photograph of a small car model which he made from three business cards and "which was the prototype for a Micromodels model".His scratch modeling tips were brilliant. I have never found anything to match his method of producing wire-spoked wheels for sports and racing car models. Deason was also a great advocate of jigs - for all sorts of jobs. His construction guide for the wheels, great and small, of a traction engine is particularly impressive. While he was not a 'rivet counter' in terms of absolute accuracy, he was very much of the school that the finished product should be as accurate as YOUR SKILL LEVEL PERMITS IT TO BE. In other words, the end result should be satisfying for the constructor in terms of his or her ability at that time. He did not condemn the neophyte whose skills did not match a more advanced builder.But he always encouraged builders to learn more. And this is the great advantage of the book: no matter what your skill level, there is sure to be something in it that you will learn. For example, the gum-strip technique for shaping the very complex hull shape of the Paddle Tug "Anglia" is not something a first-time builder would be wise to undertake, yet would be a very appealing new method for compound curve shapes for someone with reasonably advanced skills to try.Deason did not like the simple 'cut-out'. If the original of the component being modeled was three-dimensional, then insofar as it was possible for it to be so, the model must be, too. Yet sometimes his modeling instructions seem to say the opposite. It was really a clever inspirational ploy. YOU were encouraged to try adding a bit more. In the instructions for his model River Clyde puffer, the deckhouse has only card cut-out windows. However, a builder, having reached that stage, and having developed a level of self confidence, would hardly resist adding clear plastic or cellophane "window panes" (this modeler included).Deason seemed content to model almost anything but equally it is clear that ships were a great love. In 1972 he released "Cardboard Ship Models" which details construction methods for three model boats that ranged from a very simple destroyer to a reasonably complex coastal ferry.Indeed, I recall an article in "Model Boats" (July 1975) in which he outlined construction of a model boat (SY Cardella) which then was fitted with a live steam engine. His goal was to sail the boat across the particular lake, and as I recall the venture succeeded.Model and Allied Publications either changed owners or names (or both) in the early 90s and now trades under the name of Nexus Publications. I do not know if any of Deason's books are still in print, but next to an original Pollock's theatre (uncut) or some of Herr Schreiber's models from before the turn of the century (also uncut), Deason's books are absolutely the best thing for a card modeler to find. I have a reasonably comprehensive library of card modeling books, but none approach the craft with the seriousness and intent of purpose of Geoffrey Deason's.I do not know if Geoffrey Deason is still alive. Given that he was a contemporary of Heighway, he must be getting on in years. Certainly, in "Cardboard Ship Models" there is a photograph of him. It shows a slight, balding figure, whose age I'd put at about late 50s or early 60s. If that was in, say, 1971, just before the book was published, he would now be well into his 80s.Neither do I know if the books are still available. Perhaps someone in the book trade could do a search of books in print for us to see if these titles are still in print, or perhaps a list subscriber in Britain might be able to more easily check with Nexus for us. Model Making, Herbert Lozier, Chilton Book Company, Radnor,Pennsylvania, 1967. from Bob Pounds :Lozier also deals with models in plastic and balsa, but only in a half-hearted way. Card is clearly his preferred medium. The car models he describes are very good, and feature a lot of useful ideas, but his boat and locomotive models are poor by comparison. Lozier is not a purist when it comes to card modeling - he happily includes the odd bit of wood or plastic if that helps make the model better, but nevertheless he IS on the right track. Model Making in Cardboard, Thomas Bayley, Dryad Press,Leicester, 1958. from Bob Pounds :I very nearly passed this book up. It was 'only' architectural models, and not what I was interested in at the time. But since I bought it nearly 30 years ago, it has become a well-used reference. Essentially it is an introduction to architectural model making. In his preface, Bayley says: 'The purpose of this book is to make a clear and constructive approach to cardboard model making, which is a craft of considerable importance and is extensively used by professional model makers, architects and display artists'. The introductory chapter outlines a range of easily made jigs that will help the model maker, and then, through a series of graded exercises, the model maker takes on increasingly difficult tasks. The first model is a simple four-sided, flat-roofed building; the last is a modern church. Along the way we build a Cotswold cottage, a medieval gatehouse, a Norman keep, and several other interesting (constructionally) models. For those who aspire to build architecturally accurate models from original plans, either as a hobby or for a living, this book is an excellent introduction. Tin Lizzie, Frank Ross Jr, Lothrop, Lee and Shepard Books,New York, 1980. from Bob Pounds :If Mr Ford's Model T is your idea of a great thing to model, this is a great book. Lots of diagrams, plans (all dimensioned) make it a treasure trove for Model T aficionados. Unfortunately, Ross never gets beyond a simple disc wheel for his cars. If only he had read Deason, he'd have known how to make spoked wheels.  Cardboard Modelling: Vol. 1 History and Geography,Vol 2.

Not specificto card modeling, this is an encyclopedic reference on almostall aspects of scale modeling in almost all media. Basic Drafting Technology, Rotmans, Horton, Good,Delmar Publishers, 1980, ISBN 0-8273-1293-8.from Kell Black : The design of developments and intersections calls for aknowledge of auxiliary views and revolutions. This in turn assumesa working knowledge of descriptive geometry, and two and three viewdrawing. And this presupposes that one already knows how to use aT-square, compass, dividers and triangles. I'm sorry to say thatif one is interested in design, one is best advised to begin atthe beginning. The book above is recommended by the chair of theEngineering Tech department at Austin Peay State University(Clarksville, TN) for anyone wishing to learn this stuff on his/herown. It is a high school text, and it is exceedingly clear in allof its descriptions of processes and techniques. So, that's my advice. Start at the beginning. I know that allthose illustrations of developments of scalene cones by triangulationlook intoxicating, but you'll only end up frustrated if you try tobegin your designing there.

ISBN 3-258-04694-8.from Kell Black : This is an AMAZING volume, 320 pages devoted to exploring theart of geometry through card constructions. It is made up mostlyof photographs and diagrams collected during the author's decadesof teaching a course entitled "Working with Paper" at the ZurichSchool of Art. The German text is actually secondary to theillustrations; my own students have been using a copy of an older,much smaller, now out-of-print edition of this text for years, andno one has ever asked to have a single word translated. An expensive book at around 75 dollars. If you're interestedin nosing around used book stores, you might find an Englishtranslation of the small first edition, copyright sometime in the1970's. It used to be a required text in basic three dimensionaldesign classes at the Rhode Island School of Design. from Clark Britton : The Zeier book was also reprinted by van Nostrand in a paper backedition. It was very affordable. I agree this was a great book on cardconstruction and has many applications. Magazines  Kartonowy Fan is a Polish magazine devoted to paper modeling.
