  • Patent number: 4365438
    Abstract: A combination toy vehicle and book, which also serves as a container for the toy, is formed by imprinting a multiplicity of uniformly sized pages with scenes upon which a user may operate the toy vehicle. By cutting out an identical region of each page, and by binding the pages together along one side, a book is formed which contains a well in which the toy vehicle may be stored. The inventive device may also serve as a marketing package by inserting a toy vehicle in the well formed by the cut-out regions, and by covering at least the well formed by the cut-out regions of the book with a transparent sheet or bubble.
