This is a book transcribing the picture scrolls of Koshō Shimizu, who oversaw the Showa restoration of Todai-ji Temple. (See image) It is not generally available for sale and is a very valuable book. The cover is slightly folded. (See image 16) There is a tear on the back cover. (See image 17) I have kept it at home in a smoke-free and pet-free environment. Please understand that this is a used item.
