Title: Masaki UnryShi 正Oe 雲龍紙
Description: 19. [papermaking sample book] Masaki Unryūshi 正oe 雲龍紙 Inogami Kabushiki Kaisha 伊野紙株式会社 [Shikoku] C. 1950's-60's 15 x 22.5cm oblong, ribbon-bound collection of Japanese paper samples from the Inogami Paper company, Inogami Kabushiki Kaisha 伊野紙株式会社, on Shikoku Island. Unryūshi 雲龍紙 [Cloud Dragon Paper] is a wonderful translucent tissue of varying thicknesses creating patterns, such as squares, circles (e.g. suidama 水玉, rain drops), lines and abstract florals, as well as pierced patterns. Each pattern has a name, category (e.g. chirashi ちらし, leaflet) or number printed on it and some are backed with brown paper inserted between the folded sheets. Introduction in Japanese text. Approximately 100 samples are in this book, issued most probably in the late 1950's or 1960's. The Inogami Paper Company was established in June of 1948 and appears to still be producing art papers and other paper products today. Interesting to note that a recent CEO of the company also has the surname Masaki 正oe. The printed cover is creased but the papers are clean and remarkable. .
