B344.  Ko Kogai.  1993.  Clothbound with slipcase, 12 x 8 1/2″, 538 pages in Japanese.  There are very few pages of text in this book; nearly every page is brilliant color photographs of great kogai, including at the front of the book some very early pieces.  I know of no other book that covers only kogai and no other will ever come close: this is wonderful.  It is also nearly impossible to find.

The slipcase is lightly toned; the book is in excellent condition.  This copy is with a trusted consignor to my site; he will ship from the US and my usual guarantee applies.  7 pounds, 8 ounces. $500.
