[DESIGN] Ogino ISSUI, designer : KAKIMAMI GUSA Vol.3

[DESIGN] Ogino ISSUI, designer. KAKIMAMI GUSA vol. 3. Kyoto, Unkindo, Meiji 37 [1904] Ribbon-bound oblong Japanese style, 25.4 x 36 cm. Ge volume (volume three of three, only). 25 large full page color woodblock designs by Ogino Issui, one of the most elusive, yet most skillful designers of the early 20th century. This would appear to be the original Unkindo edition, later sold (though maybe not reprinted) by Unsodo when Unkindo was folded into Unsodo. It appears in the Taisho era Unsodo catalogue, but not the later Showa era one. The book is largely unheard of in the marketplace. Little is known of Issui and his oeuvre is quite limited, his most famous work being the ZUAN HYAKUDAI in three volumes. This work is perhaps his scarcest and very lovely. In nice condition, impression and color through out with a bit of browning.
