Peking: Distributed by Gouzi Shudian, 1956. Hardcover. Very Good. 19 paper cuts produced by folk artists of Guangdong and Fujian Provinces, China, accompanied by short introductions in Chinese, English, French and German. Presented in a portfolio box with traditional bone-fastenings. Rare. One later edition located on OCLC (State Library of South Australia). The pieces, mounted on thin card-stock, are done on paper with incised patterns, both delicate and elegant in appearance.
