Rutland, VT & Tokyo: Charles E. Tuttle Company, 1966 Wikipedia says that haiku is a very short form of Japanese poetry. The sale item is an excellent example of the poetry and the painting style plus an essay on the form by the translator, Harold Stewart. Stated thirteenth printing of the first edition from 1960. Binding is gray buckram with red buckram at spine; paper fan decoration on front board and gold lettering on spine. Five poems per page with and illustration on the facing page. This is a very attractive edition with no marking or soiling inside. Binding is tight and square but badly sunned at spine. Dedication to previous owner on front free end page. Green slip case instead of a dust jacket. A very unusual book! 180 pages.
