Abstract:
1. A combined poster book, wherein a folded sheet of material has 4 creases which form a grid containing a total of 8 bilateral cells, said grid configured into 2 rows which each contain 4 of said 8 bilateral cells, with printed matter on an entire first surface of said folded sheet of material and printed matter on an entire second surface of said folded sheet of material, wherein said printed matter on said first surface of said folded sheet of material is arranged such that each of said 8 bilateral cells is occupied by a single self-contained page of sequenced information, and said printed matter on said second surface of said folded sheet of material occupies said entire second surface; and on said first surface of said sheet of material, an upper row of said 2 rows of 4 cells comprising said printed matter of a first 4 pages of a sequence of information, so that a page a lower row of said 2 rows of 4 cells, comprising said printed matter of a remaining 4 pages of said sequence of information, so that a back cover, a front cover, a page said printed matter of said back cover, front cover, page said combined poster book has been achieved by folding said sheet of material into a most compact state by use of multiple perpendicular folds, such that, upon opening said combined poster book from said most compact state, each said single page of sequenced information is revealed in a logical order without any additional refolding or turning of said combined poster book, and wherein a first unfolding of said folded sheet of material is akin to a traditional opening of a book from right to left and reveals 2 of said 8 bilateral cells, with said first and second page of sequenced information occupying said 2 bilateral cells revealed with said first unfolding; and a second unfolding of said folded sheet of material opens said folded sheet of material from bottom to top with a motion which is at a perpendicular angle to said first unfolding, and reveals said third, fourth, fifth, and sixth said page of sequenced information positioned in 4 of said 8 bilateral cells, with said third and fourth pages of sequenced information positioned in a top 2 of said 4 bilateral cells, and said fifth and sixth pages of sequenced information positioned in a bottom 2 of said 4 bilateral cells revealed; and a third and final unfolding of said folded sheet of material opens said folded sheet of material from right to left with a motion which is at a perpendicular angle to said second unfolding, and reveals said entire second surface of printed matter.
