This item was stored on my grandmother's bookshelf. It is a Higher Grade Japanese Language textbook published in 1951 (Showa 26) under the Ministry of Education's copyright. Please understand that there are stains, discoloration, scratches, tears, writing, and dirt due to aging. I believe this is a rare item, so how about adding it to your collection? It will be sent via anonymous delivery in a waterproof OPP bag.
