Illustrated Book of Artificial Flowers for Practical Use Uncommon book by Ms. Haruko Yoshizumi
[Japan] Interesting work with 26 plates of colour illustrations showing designs and cutting guidelines for making artificial flowers as well as one plate of butterflies at the beginning. Yoshizumi Shoten published the book and that company appears to have been managed by a lady, Ms. Haru (or Haruko) Yoshizumi. A second edition was published in 1928.
