Abstract

A pop-up dimensional or specialty product which is designed for mass-production mechanical fabrication and assembly. A basepiece is formed from sheet material including a plurality of base panels, and a separate pop-up element is attached to two different base panels. Adhesive is applied to a subelement of one pop-up element, and after bringing the base panels into superposed relationship, as by folding, the subelement becomes adhesively attached to a subelement of the other pop-up element. Upon unfolding of the basepiece, the pop-up elements stand up out of the plane thereof.
