La bataille du singe et du crabe - Japanese Fairy Tale in French Very scarce plain paper edition
Lovely example of this book titled 'Saru Kani Kassen' [The Battle of the Monkey and the Crab] that was translated by Joseph Dautremer (1860-1946). Plain paper editions in French and German are scarcer than their English counterparts. No mention of Hasegawa, only Kobunsha. Artist not mentioned but it was Kobayashi (Sensai) Eitaku.
Tokyo. Kobounsia [Kobunsha]. 1885. 14pp. 18.2 x 12.5cm.
In fine condition with virtually no wear.
