Return of the Scottish Paper Sculptor

Be very cool if she visited the Rosenbach. But I wonder how she would do it under the watchful eye of Elizabeth.

Return of the Scottish Paper Sculptor

The Scottish library and museum paper sculptor has returned!

The anonymous paper sculptor, who has left exquisite paper creations in several libraries and museums in Scotland (Shelf Awareness, September 20, 2011), recently left three more items in the Scottish Poetry Library, NPR reported. The items are a cap that looks like a wren, gloves and a note saying that these were the last of 10 sculptures that the sculptor is leaving, and that she plans to remain anonymous. The sculptures, she said, are thank-you gestures "in support of special places."
