About the
Origami Collection
The Origami Collection was born in 1980 from ideals
fostered by the founding members of OrigamiUSA. Michael
Shall (1949-1995) launched this yearly anthology to
share origami models from around the world. His mentor,
Lillian Oppenheimer (1898-1992), provided the
springboard for this effort, as many of the models were
drawn from her collection and connections she cultivated.
Alice Gray (1914-1994) also provided inspiration by
streamlining the communication of origami ideas. All of the
novice-level works in this collection are dedicated to Alice
and her love of simple, elegant pieces.

Walter Palmer, the US dentist who killed Cecil the Lion in Zimbabwe, paid about £32,000 for the
“pleasure”. He claims that he thought the hunt was legal and was unaware Cecil was protected.
Leaving aside the nature of the man who enjoys this type of murder, the fact is the kill could easily
have been perfectly legal. How, in this day and age, can any country allow the massacre of such a
magnificent and endangered species?
Paper recommendation: thicker paper around 100 gsm should work well. For the first try, use bicolor paper.
Size: 15 cm square will produce a star with diameter around 10 cm.
