Subject:Help With Japanese Book of Prints
Posted By: Ahmed Sai Mon, Oct 19, 2020 IP: 107.128.183.46

I would greatly appreciate the help with the identification of a Japanese book full of prints.
The book was brought back from Japan by a church minister that was there in 1899. I have documents of his stay in Japan at that period.
