About This Item

N.P.: [NOT IDENTIFIED], [1925]. First edition. Octavo. [20] leaves with each leaf bearing two photographic illustrations of this great disaster. Captioned in English and Japanese and printed on versos only (Japanese read from back to front so their rectos). Publisher's string-tied orange wrappers bearing the title in Japanese and English and a blue photograph of a destroyed building. Old central crease. Spme mostly eroded but with no consequences on the book's integrity. Only two copies recorded by OCLC. Very good.
