【Title】Bessatsu Senmon Ryori: Nihon Ryori no Shiki 1 (Special Edition Professional Cooking: Japanese Cuisine Seasons 1) Published in 1985 This is the first in the Bessatsu series and is considered quite rare. This is an old item owned by my parents, who were chefs. They seemed to have referred to it quite a bit, and this first edition shows the most wear. ▲ The laminate on the cover has some peeling. ▲ Overall, there is noticeable staining and yellowing. ▲ There are markings (possibly more than 4, I may have missed some) in the glossary inside. Although there are noticeable folds and stains, there are no problems with reading it. Please consider that this is a used item from 40 years ago. Due to its thickness, it cannot be wrapped in bubble wrap. It will only be protected from water damage and shipped in recycled packaging materials. I am decluttering, so I plan to dispose of it after a certain period of time. Thank you.
