辻晋堂陶彫作品集 [=Tsuji Shindō tōchō sakuhinshū / Collection of ceramic sculptures by Shindo Tsuji]

In publisher's pictorial slipcase and cardboard outer slipcase for shipping. Trivial toning to cloth on spine, else a fresh, Fine copy. Small abrasions to both slipcases; inner slipcase slightly darkened on title panel; Near Fine overall. Text entirely in Japanese.

Quite scarce monograph on the modernist ceramic works of Tsuji Shindō (1910-1981). Well-illustrated, including many photographic illustrations in color. Later retrospective catalogs were published after Tsuji's death, but this one, issued during the artist's lifetime, appears quite uncommon, with just one catalogued copy in North American libraries (University of Michigan).
