    Hi all anything special about this book at all. dated 1929 is in mostly japanese some English. I believe it chronicles his works. Now it has certain images that are on a different paper to the normal pages and the printing looks different, darker and is protected by a semi transparent paper with writing on it. I know the book experts will know what I'm talking about just wondering if I wasted my hard earned 3.50 on this at all. cheers chris 15113451835944.jpg 15113451836385.jpg 15113451836736.jpg 15113451999439.jpg 15113451999198.jpg 15113452172790.jpg

    It's cool. I'm not sure what it's worth, but I'd have thrown $3.50 at it too.

    Chris believes it chronicles his work, that would be poetry, paintings and prints.
    The illustration he photographed is of the watercolour "The Ancient of Days", which is the term for God in the Book of Daniel. It is beautiful:
