This listing contains many of the teachings of Master Yukiyoshi Sagawa. It can be considered a valuable document that serves as a guide for those aspiring to study martial arts. I read it once and have kept it stored at home. It's a beautiful, clean item. The contents of the book are almost unused, but the obi (paper band) has some slight scuffing. I think a beautiful, out-of-print item like this is rare. If you are looking for a clean copy, please consider purchasing it. The paper is prone to staining, but I have been able to preserve it in a clean condition. I have included many photos of the current condition, so please check them and make your judgment. I have also included a photo with the obi removed. I do not smoke, nor do I own any pets. Immediate purchase is welcome. Please note that the first person to purchase the item, even during negotiations, will be given priority. If you have any concerns about the condition of the book, please leave a comment. *Please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about the condition, as this is a used item. Only those who understand this should purchase it.
