In the early heydays of the second revolution of origami Tom Stamm, a devoted fan and practitioner of origami design, went through a rich period of exploration and creativity in the development of origami Dragons. Including his wonderful "Sea Serpent Dragon" and "Multi-Piece Sea Serpent" as well as 3 wonderful "Flapping Dragon" variations. For the first time the most memorable of these are published here with loving re-diagramming as well as two small works of my own which were inspired during the redesign. I loved these models as a kid and am thrilled to be a part of making them available again. - JC Nolan
