ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a drawing toy which includes a plurality of light transmitting carriers that are manually movable past a writing platen which supports portions of the carrier. Each carrier has on its surface a series of different figure fragments which inhibit light from passing through the carrier where a figure fragment is displayed. Selectively moving the carriers to the platen positions different figure fragments over the platen. There is a light source adjacent to the platen and on the side of the platen opposite the carrier so that light passes through the platen and then through the carrier. Preferably, a transparent protective member overlies the portion of the carriers supported by the platen, with the carriers being sandwiched between this member and the platen. A translucent sheet of paper is placed over the protective member opposite the platen. This paper, being sufficiently light transmitting, permits the viewer to see the fragments displayed on the carrier through the paper, enabling the viewer to trace an image of the figure fragments on to the paper.
