This baby is long overdue, and comes in at a whopping 4kg+ because we've aimed for a works of the highest quality, with cloth slip case, embossed cloth covers, and premium-quality heavy-weight high-gloss pages. Because shipping costs will be a little expensive (around $30 for Sea Mail from Japan) we've decided to keep the sale price well below that of a book of equivalent quality and content.

The first 200 copies will be personally editioned and signed by me (Ross Walker). Like Hotei's Kawase Hasui catalogue, we expect this edition of the Koitsu catalogue to be out-of-print well before any second edition is considered. Copies will be editioned and shipped in the same order that orders are received (first in, first served). To secure your copy, please click the "Pre-order the Koitsu catalogue" button below.

Please note that the images you see in the "sneak peek" files below are low-resolution versions. The printed catalogue will of course contain full-colour high-resolution images.
