      I paid £100 for it new, that was why it was so difficult to get! Remember when it was sixty quid on amazon :-(. Went in the maha shop but hardy is refusing to sell them directly now 😞 local shop in Kingston still had a few copies in their warehouse! There is still one left as far as I know if anyone is interested but I was told that there is some damage to the cover. If so let me know and I will go in to the shop and have a chat with them and pick it up. Really great book!!!!

                  Silk covered book from Japan. Granddad gave this to me. It was written for western tourists in the mid-1930s and details a number of different aspects of Japanese culture. It is bound by the teeth of some sea animal, can't recall what. The pages are vellum-like and folded over rather than single sheets.

                  Another one from granddad, this by Nissan as a goodwill gift for a town in the US where they were building a factory.

                  I'm having difficulty trying to find my favorite, a volume of woodblock prints. Will post when I find it.

                  Think it, be it.

                            Maharishi book on camo by hardy blechman! Was bloody hard to get hold of and its a lovely book (although very fucking geeky)

                            @Giles:

                            They're pretty easy to find over here, but when you do, they re lots and lots of $$$$$'s

                            Have the same book here at home. They were on sale until last week here in Ghent… Giles (or anyone else here for that matter), if you want one I can check if they have some left? Shops gone now but I have contact details.

                                        Might show it to the wife and ask her what she's doing in the book? But perhaps I value my limited ability to reproduce!

                                          That book looks great. That's a useful tool for sure.
