[JAPANESE TEXTILE] TATSUMURA, HEIZO. Meibutsugire. [Collection of 24 folding sleeves issued by the Textile Treasures Society] Kyoto: Shokuhokai, Taiso 10 et seq. i.e. 1921-[1923]. 24 parts, folding paper sleeves stamped with the series title and the part number, each containing three textile specimens (or in two cases, two, as indicated on the covers) woven by Heizo Tatsumura on the Nishijin loom in Kyoto, each enclosed in folded Japanese paper, for a total of 70 specimens (and apparently complete thus). Some soiling, one specimen out of order, possibly missing one Japanese text leaf from a sleeve, extremely rare indeed. An exceptional collection of specimens of the magnificent silk brocades produced by Heizo Tatsumura (1876-1962), whose textiles were among the most opulent produced in pre-WWII Japan. Around 1921 Tatsumura began to recreate ancient textiles from the 7th and 8th centuries, as found in the Shosoin Repository and the Horyuji Temple. These were woven using a Jacquard loom, emulating the warp-faced compound weave originally used. OCLC notes only the copies at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the National Diet Library, C
