021561Gifu Loose title page in English and Japanese age-toned 80 page descriptive booklet in Japanese the front cover a little age-toned four-page folded loose index in English 109 very fine colour lithographic plates loose one plate a little foxed one plates stained in the margin one final page in Japanese age-toned; loosely tied with blue silk and contained in the original blue cloth fitted folding box rubbed secured with two ties with bamboo clasps one tie in danger of becoming detached. RARE. The first edition of this iconic book was 1914 and the second edition two years later in 1916. The title page to our copy is definitely that of the first edition - it has the misprint 'Illustraions' and no English date; whereas in the second edition the date appears and the misprint is corrected. Our copy has 109 plates which is definitely correct for the second edition; however the only copy of the first edition online is that of Jerry Stanoff's Rare Oriental Book Company which states 101 plates - now is his copy lacking or is our own copy a mixture of editions ! I can find no copy of the first edition in a library so I can't corroborate this at the moment. "Isuke Tsuboi 1843-1925 a man who devoted himself to the research of bamboo for nearly forty years and was known as "Japans foremost bamboo guru". In 1881 he set up a farm to experiment with bamboo planting. Over the many years of his hard work Tsuboi accumulated fruitful knowledge in bamboo species and their phytogeographic patterns. He also developed efficient planting methods identified the causes of withering and discovered efficient ways to fight against pests. During his years of research Tsuboi made frequent trips between Taiwan China and Japan which demonstrate the seriousness and diligence with which he pursued the study of bamboo. He was the first man to build a bamboo specimen garden in Japan a place that displayed his categorization of all native bamboo species in Japan. Botanists directors of bamboo groves and bamboo lovers of his time all came to marvel at the richness of his collection. Sadly after Tsuboi passed away the garden was abandoned and then vanished in disrepair. Tsubois Illustrations of the Japanese Species of Bamboo stands as one of the great achievements of his research. The book depicts various species and morphology of bamboo and contains intricate sketches of their inner parts. Even by todays standard this book still retains great value as a reference guide.".
