Shuka - Lovely woodblock printed book with 72 designs edited by Sato Chuichi
[Japan] Very nice work containing 36 pages each with two woodblock printed designs most likely used for decorative envelopes. The 1920s were an especially interesting time in the evolution of Japanese design and this lovely book is a great example of this.
