Size: 8" x 11" - Pages: 168 - Published: 2012 - Price: $80 - Softcover



This issue of Geijutsu Shincho RULES!! Such a great magazine. This one covers a recent exhibition on antique Japanese Ghost painting as well as an article on Okiku, one of my favorite ghost stories. So so so many great ghost, yurei and obake in here, including some I've never seen before. This issue sold out almost immediately and it is worth every penny!

OOP Bloody Ukiyo-e in 1866 & 1988 - RARE









Size: 8 ” x 11.5 ” Pages: 73 - Published: 1988 - Price: $150 - Binding: Softcover

This book is a carnival of macabre imagery. Blood, guts, sinew, dangling eyeballs, displaced intestines, hags and heroes, this book dishes out punishments that only an intensly depraved mind would concoct. Includes illustrations from Yoshiiku, Yoshitoshi, Maruo and Hanawa. While the imagery within is compelling enough reason to pick this up, it also includes explanations of the pieces in both Japanese and English. So much Japanese Myth and Folklore! This book is worth it's weight, I've been in it all afternoon. I have 2 copies in stock and am hunting for more as we speak!
