réf. MD39Two large slim folio volumes 43pp.; paper wrappers. Books protected in hand-made craft paper dust jackets; both volumes filled to completion with color pencil designs annotated throughout in pencil in Japanese and English. A dust jacket of one volume soiled and starting to chip along the spine edge. Very good to near fine condition. Two volumes compiled by a student at the Obata Sewing School in San Francisco providing approximately 50 designs 27 of which are accompanied by pasted-in pencil sketches of the finished product. Date of publication based on the three Obata Sewing School blueprint designs copyright 1923 pasted into one of the volumes. Designs include patterns for everyday garments like a baby's dress bib and cape; boy's and girl's sailor suits; a bicycle costume with a divided skirt; man's vest smoking jacket and sack coat; and lady's breaches and knickerbockers. There are also several designs for hats mostly berets and caps. Obata Sewing School was a private sewing school operating in San Francisco in the early decades of the 20th century serving primarily women of the Japanese immigrant Issei community and later the second generation Nisei. Institutions of this kind played a crucial role in the social and economic life of Japanese American communities on the U.S. West Coast prior to World War II. The school offered practical training in Western-style dressmaking and tailoring enabling Japanese immigrant women to acquire marketable skills at a time when access to formal American education and professional employment was limited. Sewing schools such as Obata Sewing School provided not only vocational instruction but also a socially acceptable pathway to economic independence home-based labor and small-scale entrepreneurship. Beyond its practical function Obata Sewing School also served as a community space for women embedded within the broader network of Japanese-language schools religious institutions and mutual-aid associations that structured life in San Francisco’s Japantown Nihonmachi. The curriculum reflected a broader process of cultural adaptation combining Japanese craftsmanship with Western clothing forms required by everyday life in the United States. Like many Japanese American educational and cultural institutions Obata Sewing School ceased operations during World War II following the forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans under Executive Order 9066 1942. As a result surviving documentation related to the school - certificates photographs printed ephemera - is rare and often preserved only in private or family archives. Material associated with Obata Sewing School offers valuable insight into women’s labor immigrant education and the material culture of the Japanese American diaspora illuminating an often-overlooked infrastructure that supported daily life resilience and adaptation in prewar immigrant communities. hardcover

This exceptional late-Edo-period original Kano School painting montage incorporates many of the elements developed by the famed multi-generational painters whom over four centuries revived and shaped Chinese idealist traditions into a uniquely vigorous Japanese art style. The Kano school painters emphasized landscapes Imperial court interior & exterior architectural elements colours uses of gold animal and botanical subjects often creating crowded panoramic scenes typically used in wall & door screens as well as triptych folding wall screens. The repeated instructions on these designs in Japanese by Sasayama Tsutsumu -- one of several Sasayama painters who took that name from the 18th- to 19th-Centuries in the Kano School beginning with Sasayama Yoi d. 1743 student of Kano Sunnobu 1636-1713 and subsequently four more generations afterwards nearly all adopted and chiefly serving the Chofu domain -- specify these designs are each one of three pieces. In addition there are ink manuscript memos appearing with directions on pigments for the final design work such as adding mica flecks or other paints & dyes and these sketches captured key features of a design so that students or other Kano artists could sufficiently enlarge recreated and fully understand the steps required for the finished decorative artwork pieces. The upper right first image presents bamboo looming in the weather emphasizing their connections to architectural features; The second and third designs capture the golden age Curt of the King of Shang in 1600 B.C. memorialized later as the Xia Dynasty; the fourth presents a rugged hillside and trees shrouded in clouds; the fourth a wonderful large crane apparently intended as part of a much larger piece; and finally the sixth lower right features distant pagoda temple shrouded mountains flower-bedecked pine tree in foreground and with delicate colouring and shading. Naganobu Kano fl. 1775-1828 and his son Osanobu Seisenin Kano 1786-1846 were of the Kobikicho family which carried on the Kano School traditions from 1730 until the Meiji Period and were instrumental in producing designs and screens for the Nishinomaru and Honmaru palaces which burned down in 1838 and again in 1844. Even though the paintings no longer exist similar original design such as these do survive in the Tokyo National Museum. Seisenin Kano was especially well known for his art adapted from his studies from ancient paintings at the end of the Edo-period.
