Japanese Toys: Playing With History.
Publisher: Rutland VT / Tokyo: Charles E. Tuttle Co. / Bijutsu Shuppan-Sha, 1965..
First U.S. Edition Blue cloth stamped in gilt. 516 pages.

Commentary on the illustrations follows. Nicely produced, but the translator notes that some compression and modification from he original Japanese text has taken place. Still a very nice production.

The slipcase (actually a cardboard box) is lightly worn, and the spine label is a bit toned and soiled. Hardback quarto Hardback quarto Fine in Very Good Dustjacket, Very Good Slipcase
