MassiveMoonHeh Posted March 11 Report Posted March 11 Just picked up a first edition, first print of the Sword and Samé by Henri L Joly and Inada Hogitaro published in 1913 as a private print of 200 books. This is the OG in terms of books published on the subject of Japanese Swords in any European Language. It all starts with this book... An incredibly scarce book I have been hoping to get one for some time and was fortunate to find it in a little English Bookshop near Cambridge. This is copy 146. I must admit I am rather excited. 5 2 1 Quote

Before I was keen to just read it and learn some of the older words and their origins but now I wonder who owns 145, are they a member of NMB? 1 1 Quote
