Large Book of Actual Kimono Fabric Samples by Japan Fabric Dying Co. Ltd.
Some Orimono Hyohon - Types No. 6. [Dyed Fabric Samples].
Nihon Senshoku Hyohonsha [Japan Fabric Dying Sample Co. Ltd.] 1927.
72pp. (31pp with 2 samples per page, 22pp with full page samples, 6pp with even larger foldout samples, final 13pp blank and appear to never have had samples attached).
Covers measure 47.5 x 24.9cm (and about 4cm thick)
Some samples dated till 1935 so it seems samples were added year by year as the string binding can be untied and tied.
The silk quality is very high and the samples are beautiful.
In very good condition. On nice thick paper. Some minor wear to covers but overall very good. A few other pages are inserted in the book with smaller samples.
