Berkeley: Wilderness Press, 1981. Reprint . Durable Pictorial Soft Cover. Near Fine/No Jacket. SIGNED BY ROWELL on the short title page. Though copyright is 1974, this is a reprint because the first edition was not printed in Japan. Though not dated, this was most likely printed in 1981 based on a review in a journal. On the copyright page, the sticker "printed in Japan" covers a misprint: "printed in Iapan". This book is the same size and format as the first printing, but has a softcover binding. Copies of this classic Yosemite climbing book that are signed by Rowell are becoming increasingly difficult to find. The book measures 279mm tall x 224mm and has 207 + [1] pages, 115 b/w & 16 color photos.

The first cinema, the Asakusa Denikikan, was opened in Tokyo in 1903 and within 13 years 300 cinemas had sprung up throughout the country... (The author) focuses on the historical development of Japanese film, illustrated by a series of typical Japanese film posters. She details an industry and an art form shaped by the competing and merging forces of traditional culture and of economic and technological innovation." Edgewear, creases to bottom and bottom and top corners of front cover, soil on bottom and light soil to outside pages. We note pencilled underlining on at least 29 pages and pencilled marginalia on at least three pages and four creased page corners. Quotes… Read More
