Seltener, sehr ausführlicher und reich mit fotografischen Abbildungen illustrierter, zweiteiliger Reiseführer für Kyoto und die benachbarten Präfekturen (zwei getrennte Seitenzählungen). Besonders attraktiv sind die 7 doppelblattgroßen Farbholzschnitte, die den für seine heißen Quellen bekannten Ort Kinosaki sowie 6 japanische Kunsthandwerke zeigen (Silk Weaving Factory at Nishijin; Embroidery Works; Yuzen Dying; Earthern-Ware Factory; Bronze-Ware Factory; Lacquer-Ware Factory). - Papier gering gebräunt. Es fehlt der große, lose beigegebene Faltplan von Kyoto sowie die Sektion "Vocabulary and short phrases" (= S. 69 bis 96) im 2. Teil). - The orig. publisher's silk binding is worn, spotted and rubbed at edges and corners. The copy lacks the folding plan of Kyoto and the section "Vocabulary and short phrases" in the second part (= pages 69 to 96).
