I am selling textbooks that were used as examples at a calligraphy vocational school. The content is easy to understand, covering a wide range from basic to advanced, and is recommended for those who are about to learn calligraphy. ● Thoughts on Calligraphy Textbooks Unlike other educational textbooks that are constantly updated, with past questions quickly becoming outdated, this is not the case in the world of calligraphy. Both the帖学派 (Chogaku-ha) and 碑学派 (Higaku-ha) schools are based on classical calligraphy, so the textbooks can be used permanently regardless of the era. This is a good point about calligraphy textbooks. Therefore, they also tend not to depreciate much, but I would be happy to pass them on to students who will use them with care. Please feel free to comment if you have any questions. ● For those starting calligraphy at university or vocational school this spring I will sell textbooks, which can be expensive to buy new, at a bargain price. The condition shows signs of use (and some notes for study), but there are no problems for learning. ● To save on shipping costs Buying individually incurs shipping costs, so buying in bulk is a better deal. I wrote in the previous textbook listing that I purchased these books in bulk when I was a calligraphy vocational school student. However, some people bought them individually. (And they all sold out in a day.) There is an item to request a set purchase, so please press that button and make a request. These textbooks are heavy and thick, and I'm even considering giving them away for free, but the shipping costs are incredibly high (in some cases, the shipping costs are higher than the textbook price), so I would be grateful if you could buy them in bulk for your own benefit. If you buy them in bulk, they will be shipped in a cardboard box, making it easier for both of us to handle. ※ Trends of used books in this series For reference, I checked and found that this book (¥4200) is hardcover and the used book market price was ¥3980 plus shipping ¥360 (Rakuten Ichiba), etc. For your reference!
