Title: Shikei Senkoku 死刑宣告
Description: 1925. [MAVO] HAGIWARA Kyôjiro è�©åŽŸæ�­æ¬¡éƒŽ. SHIKEI SENKOKU 死刑宣告. Chouryuusha Shoten 長隆舎書店, Tokyo, 1925. Prelims, 11pp, 6pp. 161pp. 5pp. finals. Profusely illustrated throughout in linocuts by Okada Tatsuo 岡田é¾�夫, Murayama Tomoyoshi æ�‘山知義 and others. Wrappers designed by Okada. With the Okada-designed slipcase and scarce as such. Perhaps the most important Mavo-inspired volume. Here in the second issue with the addition of color to the covers and a few of the plates. A cornerstone of any MAVO collection. The spine is perished but preserved, the covers and slipcase are a bit rubbed and a film of some sort has been laid down on the slipcase spine. But all and all, a good copy of this fragile work. For more on its importance, see Weisenfeld's book, MAVO, JAPANESE ARTISTS AND THE AVANT GARDE, pp. 97-101. .
