Highlights

Manual of Japanese Flower Arrangement by Josui Oshikawa and Hazel H. Gorham. Cultural Exchange Club, Tokyo; printed by The Heibonsha Co., Ltd., Kyoto. Copyright page: Copyright 1936 by Nippon Bunka Renmei, First Printing June 1936; Copyright 1937 by Cultural Exchange Club, Third Printing June 1937. Color frontispiece, pictorial chrysanthemum endpapers, and many tipped-in style color plates of moribana and nageire arrangements with instructions.

There is a leaf with Japanese brush calligraphy and a red seal. We cannot confirm who wrote it, so the book is not described as signed or inscribed.

Condition: Good. Mauve cloth with gilt title; the spine is faded and worn and the gilt is rubbed. A water stain affects some text pages (visible opposite the plates on pp. 230 and 244). Pencil notations on the calligraphy leaf. No dust jacket.

This is a used book from a private family collection. Please look at all photos; they show the actual copy.

Ships from Palo Alto, CA by USPS Media Mail; buyer pays calculated postage at checkout. Media Mail is slow (usually 2-8 days). Packed in plastic and bubble wrap inside a box.

This copy is cross-listed; if it sells elsewhere first, this listing ends.
