ABSTRACT:
Animated printed media (e.g., greeting cards, books, etc.) are disclosed herein. An animated printed medium according to one embodiment includes two pages that define a pocket therebetween. At least one of the pages has a window with a plurality of spaced apart transparent sections, and a pushsleeve is coupled to an element that is rotatable relative to the two pages. The pushsleeve extends in the pocket and has a coded image positioned to move beneath the window. A fold line is between the pushsleeve and the element to allow the pushsleeve to rotate relative to the element. The pushsleeve is movable between a first position where the element is between the fold line and the window and a second position where the fold line is between the element and the window. Movement of the pushsleeve between the first and second positions causes the coded image to move beneath the window.
