‎GINZA KAIWAI/GINZA HACCHO: THE 1954 FIRST EDITION‎

‎Tokyo Japan: Toho-Shuppan Publishing 1954. First Edition. First Printing. Hardcover. Fine/Fine Dust Jacket. Tokyo Japan: Toho-Shuppan Publishing 1954. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. First Edition/First Printing. 364 pages. Two-volume book on subject. One of the greatest Artist Books of the 20th century. The First Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run in this unique format only. There is no ISBN. The First Edition is now rare. An austerely elegant production by Toho-Shuppan: Boxed Set consisting of two volumes both of which are encased in the publisher's original cardboard box. Volume One "Ginza Kaiwai" is a book-length account on the world-famous Tokyo district. The text by Kimura Shohachi is interspersed with "ukiyo-e" woodblock print reproductions by Hiroshige black-and-white photographs by Yoshikatsu Kanno maps and reproductions of original drawings. Publisher's original promotional leaflet laid-in. Publisher's original rice-paper-wrapped slipcase with pictorial labels pasted in front and on the spine. In publisher's original rice-paper DJ as issued. Volume Two "Ginza Haccho" consists of Yoshikazu Suzuki's photographic re-construction of Ginza in an accordion foldout format. A marvel of publishing ingenuity: Two continuous plates present Every Building On Ginza Street one across the top the other across the bottom with text in the center. The accordion is encased in pale green hard boards with red titles in front. Without DJ as issued. Presents "Ginza Kaiwai/Ginza Haccho". Ostensibly the precursor of Ed Ruscha's "Every Building On The Sunset Strip" 1966 . "Ginza Kaiwai/Ginza Haccho" is first of all two books both of them realized to the superior standards that one has come to expect of Japanese publishing. Second the concept and realization of "Ginza Haccho" is the same as Ed Ruscha's most celebrated Artist Book except that the former precedes the latter by thirteen years. Calling "Ginza Haccho" the "Japanese Every Building On The Sunset Strip" as some commentators have done is racist-wrong as the appellation suggests that "Ginza Haccho" followed rather than preceded Ruscha. Whether Ruscha was aware of "Ginza Haccho" or not is irrelevant. Yoshikazu Suzuki did it first brilliantly so. Just as important its precedence does not in any way diminish Ed Ruscha's achievement either. An absolute "must-have" title for Yoshikazu Suzuki photography and Artist Book collectors. <b><i> This title is a great Artist Book. This is one of few copies of the First Edition/First Printing still available online is enclosed in a hand-made protective black cloth slipcase for posterity and is in especially fine condition: Clean crisp and bright a beauty. It is the single most beautiful copy we have ever seen. Please note: The few copies that have turned up online all have serious flaws: Heavy foxing staining soiling and wear as well as intrusive repairs. As collectors realize the importance of "Ginza Kaiwai/Ginza Haccho" in the history of modern book-making its value will increase accordingly. A rare copy thus. </b></i> One of the greatest Artist Books of our time. A fine collectible copy. . Toho-Shuppan Publishing hardcover‎
