Celebrate holiday toy books
An exhibit of holiday toy books continues on display Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. through Jan. 31 in the Department of Special Collections and University Archives, Library Room 1502.

Holiday toy books are moveable, interactive, and often completely three-dimensional. Many of them share the same characteristics with pop-up books, incorporating pop-up features, however, they are meant to be played with, in addition to being read.

The exhibit includes toy books that feature punch-out stand-up figures and pages that open into fully three-dimensional environments, such as a scene of Santa’s workshop or a Christmas manger. Other holiday toy books include actual toys, pieces of candy or gum, paint sets, games, or musical instruments.

The holiday toy books on exhibit are from the personal collections of Sacramento State Art Professor Maria Winkler and Library Assistant Laura Archbold.
