L. Boehmer & Co's Catalogue of Japanese Plants, Bulbs & Seeds Beautiful book by Hasegawa Takejiro

[Japan] Superb, important catalogue that Louis Boehmer (1843-96) commissioned Hasegawa to make for him. Hasegawa cleverly reused a number of woodlock prints from other books he published such as Japan's Year and The Favourite Flowers of Japan, but this work is a fascinating look at Boehmer's successful export nursery business based in Yokohama. 

 

Tokyo. Hasegawa Takejiro. 1903 (stated 3rd edition).

 

70pp. 24.2 x 18.4cm.

 

In very good condition. Covers a bit worn with some minor marks. Internally very good with colours bright and almost no wear. b35081451
