Book Description

A map of Tokyo and its Environs by Toshiyoshi Inagaki, published by Kudan Shubo, Tokyo 1928. On paper size 79 by 55 cm. Colour. The map is in the form of an aerial view with Tokyo Bay in the foreground, Mount Fuji to the left, Chiba to the right and distant mountains beyond. A mixture of reality and imagination, the map is more of a stylised image rather than an attempt at geographical accuracy. Text and photographs to the reverse. Folds into a small decorated paper wallet type cover with publisher’s details etc. Occasional closed edge nicks and one small area of sky with image loss, otherwise good condition. Has been folded.
