B1053. Nobuie Tsuba Kanbetsu (Kantei) Hikkei with supplements

$425.00

B1053.  Nobuie Tsuba Kanbetsu Hikkei by Matsuzawa Senbo, with 3 supplements and complete translation.  1980.  Softbound, 7 x 10 1/4″, 110 to 120 pages total in Japanese (the translation is in English).  This book has come to me from a long time consignor to my site; here is what he told me about it.  This was self published by the author in a very limited edition.  After initial publication there were 3 supplements.  The translation was done by Markus Sesko: a private effort for 4 collectors in the west.  This book almost never comes available; this is only the 2nd time I’ve had one to offer.

The subject, of course, is the great master Nobuie: his work, different generations, intricate nuances of signatures, and much more.  If you study Nobuie you want this book and this copy may be your only chance to own one; no idea where I’d find another.

This copy has Supplement 1 pasted in at the back of the book and 2 & 3 are loose Xerox copies. There is a complete translations as loose sheets. Condition  is excellent: read but not abused.  14 ounces.  $425.
