Old English Nursery Rhymes Japanned by Yoshio Markino

[Japan] Scarce work of English Nursery Rhymes with specially drawn illustrations of Japanese people for each rhyme. Although Dean's Rag Books like this were very popular, it would seem this particular volume may not have been. Worldcat only finds two copies from 1915, one in the National Library of Scotland and the other at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France.

 

London. Dean's Rag Books. [1915].

 

7 leaves (incl. covers). 21.3 x 18.3cm.

 

In good to very good condition. Expected wear to covers and some minor damage to top and bottom of spin covering. Internally very good with only general age wear, a few marks, and minor darkening. b34021123
