This complete set of 17 vintage “Catechetical Scenes” pop-up books, by Rev. Mario Coerezza, SDB, includes the original dust jackets. Produced from the 1950s to mid-1960s by the Salesian Catechetical Centre in Hong Kong, the series was intended to help teach Roman Catholic doctrine to younger students, as indicated on the dust jacket depicting two adults instructing five children. Each hardbound volume measures 5.25 inches x 7.5 inches and has 20 colorful, detailed working pop-ups, comprised of complex die-cut figures, pull-strings, fold-overs, flaps to lift and hidden surprises. There is gilt lettering on the spine and some front covers (see pictures), most of which also have a blind stamped image. These are NOS (new old stock), meaning they are new and unused; they are not second-hand books, they are not returned merchandise, and are not library copies. It has been decades since they were first printed and since some books were affected by moisture (described below) and not all are perfect, we have listed them as “used” and “like new” in eBay’s Condition Details, although NOS is a more accurate description. This listing is for a set with 16 volumes in English and one in Italian. The Italian edition includes an English translation pamphlet (see picture) printed in black and white for the text portion of each pop-up, although not for the index in front or questions in back of the book. Pictures are not stock photographs; each listing shows the exact set you will receive. Please see our other eBay listings for sets with different combinations of foreign editions, and to view pictures of other pop-up pages. And for even more pictures of individual pop-ups, examine our “Completed listings” for Catechetical Scenes sets here on eBay. Listed below are all 17 titles in this set, plus color of cover, date of Imprimatur and language (if book is not in English): 1) God and Man (light blue hardcover, 1960) 2) Christ our Redeemer (light blue hardcover, 1960) 3) The Mother of God (dark green hardcover, 1959) 4) The Words of Jesus (golden brown hardcover, 1956) 5) Holy Church (dark green hardcover, 1957) 6) Grace and Baptism (dark green hardcover, 1959) 7) Confirmation (dark green hardcover, 1957) 8) The Bread of Angels (brown hardcover, 1958) 9) The Blessed Eucharist (brown hardcover, 1957) 10) Holy Mass (dark green hardcover, 1958) 11) Confession 1 (light blue hardcover, 1956) 12) Confession 2 & Extreme Unction (light blue hardcover, 1956) 13) Holy Orders and Matrimony (dark green hardcover, 1959) 14) Prayer (dark green hardcover, 1960) 15) The Law of Love 1 (dark green hardcover, 1961, Italian “I Comandamenti 1”) 16) The Law of Love 2 (light blue hardcover, 1964) 17) The Law of Love 3 (light blue hardcover, 1964 although printed as “1694”) PAYMENT: Please pay with PayPal.

GENERAL INFORMATION: In 1974, we purchased several hundred sets of these books directly from the Salesians. They arrived in large wooden crates, with individual sets in plain cardboard boxes which were sealed shut with tape and had a contents label on the lid. Over the years, we have sold sets to Catholic teaching nuns and churches, as well as homeschooling families who valued the pre-Vatican II presentation, an Imprimatur and a Nihil Obstat. Some teachers subsequently purchased multiple sets. At some point, perhaps in the early 1970s, a portion of the publisher’s inventory in Hong Kong was somehow impacted by varying degrees of moisture. Because of this, some volumes have pages with a slight warp and modest water stains on the end papers, while other volumes remain unaffected. We believe dust jackets must have been stored away from books, since nearly perfect dust jackets can be found on books with noticeable issues from humidity. English editions of “The Law of Love 1” apparently were impacted the most (and possibly nearly all were destroyed), since in our entire shipment, we received only two examples of this book in English. And again, we are not using stock photographs; each listing has pictures of the exact set you will receive. While in our possession, these books have not been affected by water, insects, rodents or other physical damage, and are offered to you in the same condition in which we received them decades ago. Each volume is placed in a brand new, clear plastic bag for shipping purposes; this plastic bag is intended for protection, is not vintage or original, and can be discarded if you wish. An 18 volume set is referred to on the inner front flap of some dust jackets, while on the back flap of some Italian edition dust jackets, an 18th volume (The Law of Love 4) is listed as being in preparation, however it apparently was never produced. Also, note that the original Hong Kong cardboard cartons for one full set were designed to contain 17 books; an 18th book would not fit, another indication that a complete set has 17 books. Text on the dust jacket’s front flap states that the series was published in six languages. Sets exist in Chinese, English, French, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish. Collectors of pop-ups, mechanical illustrations and movable books may be interested to learn that from two to five variations exist of all 17 titles, and that is in addition to the six different languages. There may be a difference in Imprimatur dates, or perhaps the color of the hardbound cover. One variation for “Holy Orders & Matrimony” is a dust jacket with the misspelling “Order.” Occasionally, we have seen completely different art and layouts for individual pop-ups, either in a later edition or when compared to one of the non-English books, however we never documented each variation. We list languages and color of the hardbound cover so collectors can compare different sets and decide if they want to pursue these variants. We have occasionally encountered a detached pop-up. Please understand that we have not found this to be widespread, and therefore we do not examine each page and tug on every element to check its 60-year-old status. However, if you intend to use the books as teaching aids, we suggest a tiny dot or two of Elmer’s Glue to reattach loose elements, allowing sufficient time for everything to thoroughly dry before closing the book. Knowing that some sets will reach collectors who may want to use more archival-oriented adhesives—or perhaps none at all—we typically do not reattach anything. In addition, some fold-over elements were assembled using clear tape; after all these decades, most tape has dried, but we leave it up to the buyer to reattach fold-overs with new tape, or leave everything as is.
