RS: The U.S. does not have a history or tradition of assembling pop-up books (South America has a 40 year tradition and Asia has a 15 year tradition). Also, at this time there are no plants in the U.S. that are capable of producing complex pop-up books. It would be great if there were because then we wouldn’t have to travel so far to oversee the hand assembly of our books (someone from our studio goes for each book)!
