Description: Surface JapanShort Notes of a Swift Survey Illustrated in color photogravure. Depicting life in japan around the turn of the twentieth century--shocking how different life was just over a hundred years ago! Bound in paper hardcovers with a cloth spine. Plates hand tipped with borders in yellow; text pages in black with double bamboo borders and small illustrations of characters on bottom edge. A very interesting book, beautifully printed and bound. Light wear around edges, fading to lettering on spine, but still legible. Nice copy of a antique book. Some of these plates can be found selling for more than the price of the book! 11.5" x 8.5".
