About this book,

Volumes 1 through 11 of this book were published between 1911 and 1914, and the book was reprinted in three volumes in 1918. This book appears to be a combined edition of several volumes of the first edition, based on the preface with the 1914 year and the fact that the volume is not indicated on the first cover. The cover and preface of this book are from an extra issue, the 11th volume, and do not show the volume number. You can check the Digital Library of the National Diet Library in Japan to see which of the 11 volumes it contains. Probably about 6 or 7 volumes out of the total are included.

About our store

We offer a fine selection of beautiful woodcut books, design books and woodblock prints made in Japan. Many of our books were used as reference materials for Japanese industrial design some 150-50 years ago. Their designs are surprisingly unique and beautiful, and seem to compare favourably or even surpass contemporary designs. We hope that our design books will be used in contemporary design.

Woodblock printing as a printing technique is also amazingly precise, but at the same time offers a unique and beautiful texture.

We hope you enjoy our collection of Eirando Books.
