Robert Sabuda's Alice in Wonderland is an absolutely amazing example of the current state of the art of pop-up. Here's his website. Lots of stuff to explore there if you're interested, for example, his international gallery. of pop-up work, a catalog of his own books, and much more. posted by flapjax at midnite at 4:15 PM on November 27, 2006

I still have my 1980 "The Empire Strikes Back" Pop-Up. Spaceship flies out of giant worm, spaceship flies backwards into giant worm. Luke also has both hands as he falls through the shaft. posted by Burhanistan at 7:27 PM on November 27, 2006
Sabudo rocks! I love his Wizard of Oz. If you want to make an artsy, sensitive child of 8 or so get really round wonder eyes, get him/her Sabudo's Wizard of Oz. (It lcomes with emerald glasses so cool.) posted by ClaudiaCenter at 8:36 PM on November 27, 2006
I wish I had my pop-up of 4 and 20 blackbirds baked in a pie. posted by Cranberry at 9:49 PM on November 27, 2006
I remember an anatomy book for children that I saw in London once. You opened it and a large cardboard penis would jump at you. posted by elgilito at 2:18 AM on November 28, 2006
I just received an Alfred Hitchcock pop-up book. It features 7 elaborate scenes from his films. It was at Amazon. Unfortunately some of the pop-ups needed a little fiddling before they worked properly. posted by Gungho at 4:23 AM on November 28, 2006
