I purchased and read the new book. The cover case has some black scuffs and peeling. The book itself is in good condition. This book was published to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Zen Institute for Culture. It was planned to introduce as many of the calligraphic works and paintings that have come to be housed in the Zen Institute for Culture's archive through the efforts of previous scholars. Among them, the excellent pieces from the Choshodo Library and the Zen Institute for Culture collection are presented in color, with not only the main paper but also the seals and signatures enlarged for easy reading, and the entire scroll is also shown. Transcriptions were also made as far as possible. In addition, an author name index is included at the end of the book.
