<p>A cardboard toy (30b) or the like formed from a pattern in-the-flat and method. The pattern includes a plurality of panels (16 and 20) each defined by a combination of straight fold lines (24) and edges. Adjacent and parallel to each mating edge is an elongated slot (18 and 22) defining a flap or tab (26) between the slot and edge and arranged such that, when the pattern is folded into the configuration of the toy, opposing pairs of flaps (26) and spaced slots (18 and 22) are brought together. A length of one sided adhesive tape (14) is then passed through the slots (18 and 22) and around the mating flaps (26) and adhered to form a tight retaining band securing each connection. <IMAGE></p> |
