Thank you.

斯の畫冊は畫人一立斎廣重作品の中より代表的傑作を選抜して原畫の通りに縮圖して古式の木版奉書紙手摺を以てせり聊か往年の風景風俗を偲ぶ日本趣味紀念の一帙たらんとす
昭和三戊辰御大典の祝日
This volume is a selection of representative masterpieces from the works of the artist Ichiryūsai Hiroshige, reduced to their original size and hand-printed on old-fashioned hōsho paper, as a tribute of Japanese taste that somewhat recalls the scenery and customs of the past.
This book is intended to be a reminder of Japanese taste and customs of yesteryears.

Thank you so much, I. Nagy!

Is there a place where I can find out the value of handmade Japanese books from the beginning of 20th Century?

Thank you.

Kind regards,

Kasia
