Many many good books are sadly out of print now.

The Viva series, Giunta's old books, Old Tanteidan
convention books and newsletters, Clemente's Papiroflexia
and more.
I'm doing my best to collect most of them, but
one that keeps eluding me is ORU magazine #2!

Anybody has it?

Anybody willing to sell?

I don't understand the meaning of collecting all these rare stuff. I never was a collector of anything, and maybe I can't understand this out of that reason?
I have a copy of Viva! Origami, what is obviously a rare book, but I'm not a collector of rare books

greetings

Christian

I know someone who has more than 700 books!

So there's allways something to aspire to...

My rarity is Bennett Arnstein's Origami Polyhedra published in 1968. I keep it in a basement vault guarded by crocodiles, a fire-breathing dragon and two mezzo-sopranos.

I have most OUSA Convention books, one Tanteidan (9), Nolan's book, and the infamous Ansill and Hsu books. A total of... 83 books. Only the mentioned ones are probably out of print.

Because I stopped folding at about 13, I've missed most of the rare stuff (Viva! and Tanteidan 5 are my most wanted). The only rare things I have are the old Ansil book (Mythical Beings and Lifestyle Origami).

I have a printed Passion Origami.That is the only rare book in my amazing collection of 14 origami books.

I don't have any physical books.
Can't afford them.

Passion origami is a rare book? Really? Sooooo, I am rich!

I do not know, what is rare. I have some books of Robert Harbin, it should be quite rare. What about old Kasahara's books and old Montroll's books?
