Poetical Greetings from the Far East Scarce publishing error - German cover but English text
[Japan] Although this was one of Hasegawa's most popular titles on crepe paper and went through numerous editions (about fourteen), this is the first we have seen with an incorrect cover in another language. The cover states in German it is a fourth edition, but the Japanese colophon indicates this is a first edition. The folding case is also the one used for the English edition of the book.
