{"product_id":"c-1880s-kachi-kachi-mountain-japanese-fairy-tale-series-no-5","title":"C.1880s Kachi-Kachi Mountain [Japanese Fairy Tale Series No.5]","description":"A scarce copy of Kachi-Kachi Mountain, the fifth instalment in the Japanese Fairy Tale Series. Undated but most likely published in the late 1880s, the title follows the traditional Japanese folk story of a cunning rabbit tasked with avenging the death of a farmer's wife. Titles from this series are highly collectable and quite difficult to find, especially in this early crepe paper format. Illustrated throughout in the traditional Meiji-era style, the book symbolises the relatively new relationship forming between Japanese literature and western publishing. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn good condition with light edge wear, the odd small mark, a small indentation to the middle of the block, light creasing and end wear to the spine.
