This is a complete 8-volume set of "Japanese Folk Houses" published by Gakken. Due to its rarity, it is likely sought after by those involved in architecture and history, or for research lab libraries. These are large hardcover books with full-color photographs that are impressive to behold. There is some yellowing and scuffing, but the inside of the books has very few stains. Considering their age, they are in beautiful condition. This is a subjective assessment, and I can provide additional photos of the condition if requested. Please check them. - Series Name: Japanese Folk Houses - Number of Volumes: Complete 8 volumes - Volume 1 Title: Farmhouses I - Volume 2 Title: Farmhouses II - Volume 3 Title: Farmhouses III - Volume 4 Title: Farmhouses IV - Volume 5 Title: Townhouses - Volume 6 Title: Townhouses II - Volume 7 Title: Western-style Houses - Volume 8 Title: Others Thank you for looking.
