Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition, Limited Edition. Published in conjunction with the 1994 Minneapolis Institute of Arts exhibition Otsu-e: Japanese Folk Paintings from the Harriet and Edson Spencer Collection, this beautifully produced softcover catalog remains one of the most informative English-language resources on Otsu-e - the lively popular paintings once sold as traveler's souvenirs along the T?kaid? road in the Edo period (1600-1868). Essays provide a clear historical overview, explore characteristic themes and motifs, and situate these playful, sometimes satirical images within broader Japanese folk and woodblock traditions. High-quality photographic plates and detailed object entries offer a strong visual and scholarly foundation for students, collectors, and curators. This copy is in Near Fine condition, unusually well-preserved for a museum-issued softcover. The covers remain clean and bright, with only the faintest touches of surface rubbing to the rear green panel and minimal edge wear. Interior pages are crisp, unmarked, and fresh, and the binding is tight with no signs of use beyond very gentle handling. A superior example of a title often found with heavier wear. A first and only edition (1994), the catalog was designed by Ruth Dean and typeset by Patrick Atherton, with photographic contributions by Gary Mortensen and Robert Fogt. It documents key works from the Spencer Collection, including 18th- and 19th-century images of Buddhist figures, demons, legendary characters, humorous genre scenes, and classic motifs such as Daikoku shaving Fukurokuju and symbolic pagoda forms - hallmarks of the Otsu-e tradition. Because the Spencer Collection represents one of the most significant assemblages of Otsu-e in the West, this publication remains a sought-after reference for those studying Japanese folk art, Edo-period visual culture, and the intersection of vernacular creativity with religious, social, and humorous narrative imagery. Matthew Welch is a curator and scholar specializing in Asian art, long affiliated with the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. His publications focus on Japanese painting, decorative arts, and visual culture, emphasizing accessible scholarship supported by close object analysis. Welch's work has helped introduce Otsu-e and other vernacular traditions to a wider international audience. Photography by Gary Mortensen and Robert Fogt (illustrator).…

Octavo, gray cloth (hardcover), gilt lettering, xi, 226 pp. Very Good, with rubbing to gilt lettering, former-owner name to ffep. From Foreword: The United Daughters of the Confederacy has completed a generation! When, at the Hot Springs Convention in 1925 a committee was authorized to prepare this record of the achievement of the United Daughters of the Confederacy during the first generation, they were selected from a group who had served as Presidents-General, Recording Secretaries-General, and Historians-General, thus securing experience which could be used to the best advantage in such an endeavor. The story of the activities and interests of the organization for the first thirty-five years has been told according to subjects and not according to administrations in order that the history may be a ready reference for present and future Daughters of the Confederacy. The purpose of this history is to help coming generations of Daughters of the Confederacy carry forward the work whose foundations had been laid with so much faith and courage by those pioneers who launched this living memorial to the Confederate Soldier.
