                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.

                                            Sailor jerry Collins American tattoo master by Ed hardy. An excellent book on the man who introduced eastern aesthetics into western tattooing!!!! Would highly recommend watching the documentary Hori Smoku on sailor jerry too
