About This Item
Seoul: The Korea Foundation, 1997. Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. First Edition.. Folio - over 12 - 15" tall. This is the seventh of eight volumes published between 1989 and 1998 in the "Korean Relics in Overseas Collections" series, containing "a list of Korean relics and approximately 360 illustrations with descriptions, consolidating information on Korean relics preserved in the Tenri University Central Library and the Tenri University Sankokan Museum." Text in English and Korean. Advisory Committee members included Kim Kwang-on, Yun Yong-i, and You Hong-june. Since they were not intended for sale to the general public, books in the series can be pretty tough to find. Blue cloth w/gilt lettering to front cover/spine, 476 pages, green silk ribbon bookmark. A superior production. A hint of general wear, in dust jacket w/mild edgewear, in VG slipcase w/moderate wear to corners/spine ends. A nice copy of an item generally difficult to find w/both dust jacket and slipcase. This tome weighs considerably more than the average book, so additional postage may (probably will) be required..
