Hardcover. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. English text.; Hardcover (without dust jacket and slipcase).; 26 x 32 cm.; 2.5 Kg.; 215 pages with mainlt black and white illustrations and a few in colour.; Used with signs of wear on the hardcover. Edgewear. Interior with minor signs of wear. Lacks the dust jacket and slipcase.; Catalogue f…rom an exhibition held in aid of the British Red Cross in October-November, 1915.; First published in 1915 in a limited edition of 175 copies, this is the reprint from 1976.; "Affectionately known by everyone in any way connected with Japanese art as the "Red Cross" Catalogue, this was an astonishing book to appear in 1915 at the height of the war. But the exhibition that gave rise to it, though intended as a fund-raising exploit, was both imaginative and purposeful, and deserved a catalogue that was more than a simple list of exhibits. At ordinary times, there might have been refusals; in 1915, in such a cause, one imagines that no-one would have refused to lend. And so, the list of contributors includes piratically every great name among British collectors: Garbutt, Hawkshaw, Naunton and Joly himself in metalword, Meinertshagen and Trower in netsuke, Kington-Baker, Bateson, Crewdson, Hutchinson, Raphael and Lady Cecilia Rose in prints. As a guide to the collecting habits, the taste and the bias, at a particular time in Britain, there could be no more accurate guide. The illustrations and entries to the various sections of the catalogue vary in interest and importance. The prints include some specimens that are acknowledge masterpices (and one, n. 48, that has since been unmasked as a clever Sharaku fake); several of the netsuke and inro have changed hands in the auction rooms; but above all, the "Red Cross" is outstanding for its representation of a selection of magnificent sword-furniture, especially tsuba and fushi-kashira, which makes the volume indispensable to any serious collector in that field. Joly, in his preface to Part II of the Catalogue, which is wholly devoted to Metalwork, brought, almost for the first time in our literature, some kind of scientific order to the classification of tsuba and other sword-furniture, and perfected a model and a vocabulary for cataloging that has been widely adopted by most of his successors." excerpt from the foreword by Jack Hillier.
