The Old Woman Who Lost Her Dumpling Elusive plain paper edition

[Japan] Rendered into English by Lafcadio Hearn. One of the most elusive of all Hasegawa's publications. This is the first we have found in many years of looking. One of the photos above shows the difference in size between this plain paper version (on the left) and the crepe paper version (on the right). Note the book for sale is only the plain paper edition on the left.

 

Tokyo. Hasegawa Takejiro. 1902.

 

12 leaves. 24.3 x 18.4cm.

 

In very good to fine condition. One leave has some minor spotting on both sides. Otherwise in fine condition. b35091459
