1940221598Collaborationist-Controlled China or Japan. Circa1940. Small colour cartoon leaflet. Text in traditional Chinese characters. 10 x 15.5cm. Faint vertical crease though overall in very good condition. An insidiously light-hearted propaganda leaflet presumably distributed by Imperial Japan or Chinese collaborationists amidst the Second Sino-Japanese War. Its intent appears to be to discredit the regime of Chiang Kai-shek by associating him with British and by extension Western imperialism and the century of humiliation. The cartoon portrays an ailing Chinese patient suffering from a swollen Union Jack-emblazoned knee attended by two enthusiastic Japanese medics. <br> <br>The text at right reads: "把援蔣的綑帶解開來看! 非把這百年大患的惡瘤割掉 中國是不會再站起來的!" roughly translating to "Look! The fetters aiding Chiang must be broken! Unless the malignant tumor of this century-old great affliction is excised China will not be able to stand up again!". . unknown

163409關口三左エ門商店. No date of publication. circa1930. Sixteen beautiful coloured designs for furosiki with accompanying pages showing eight different font styles. 25.8 cm x 13 cm. Original green card boards worn with a little loss and creasing one illustration torn with a little loss light vertical crease but overall very good. The furoshiki or wrapping cloths listed in this delightful catalogue contain the names of restaurants kimono stores banks and a rice shop. It appears likely this was a sales catalogue for a company which specialised in making furoshiki for businesses to use for advertising. <br> <br>Over the years furoshiki turned into paper and plastic bags but recently they have been attracting attention again due to environmental concerns. They offer the great advantage of a size that can be readily changed and are very portable. . 關口三左エ門商店 hardcover

1770038298Rome 1770. 1st Edition . No Binding. Near Fine. Large Engraving Image Size 11 5/8" X7 3/4". Strong Impression Thick Heavy Ink Easily Felt By Hand On Laid Paper One Of A Large Collection Of Original Antique Engravings Formed By A Southern California Artist In The Early To Middle Twentieth Century. Giovanni Battista Also Giambattista Piranesi 1720 - 1778 Was An Italian Artist Famous For His Etchings Of Rome And Of Fictitious And Atmospheric "Prisons" Le Carceri D'invenzione. It Is Important To Look At His Contribution As An Archaeologist Which Was Acknowledged At The Time As He Had Been Elected To The London Society Of Antiquaries. His Influence Of Technical Drawings In Antiquarian Publications Is Often Overshadowed. He Left Explanatory Notes In The Lower Margin About The Structure And Ornament. Most Ancient Monuments In Rome Were Abandoned In Fields And Gardens. Piranesi Tried To Preserve Them With His Engravings. To Do This Piranesi Pushed Himself To Achieve Realism In His Work. A Third Of The Monuments In Piranesi's Engravings Have Disappeared And The Stucco And Surfacings Were Often Stolen Restored And Modified Clumsily. Piranesi's Precise Observational Skills Allow People To Experience The Atmosphere In Rome In The Eighteenth Century. Piranesi May Have Recognised His Role To Disseminate Remarkable Information Through Meaningful Images. He Became The Director Of The Portici Museum In 1751. Wikipedia. <br/> <br/> unknown
