Item Details
Description
bound with Le Jour de l'An au Japon, both etched vignette title and plates, each printed on Japon, a few signed in the plate, faint even browning and a little finger soiling throughout, several ff. patches of foxing or damp-staining both to fore corners and to upper and lower edges, most ff. creased at outer edges and at fore corners by repeated manipulation, original paper wrappers with side-stitch binding, creased at corners and with a few marks and stains, some superficial loss along fore edges, folio, [the first published in Tokyo, with the date 1886; the second without imprint, but, tentatively, also Tokyo, and c.1890] . Apparently a collation from Bigot's two main works, neither title here containing all plates published in the discrete volumes; nevertheless, complete in themselves, the first containing 19 plates, the second 10. Both beautiful documents of life in Meiji Japan.
