Seriously violent book of 28 scenes of murder that is specially bound so each print is easily removable to be framed. The prints are half and half by Suehiro Maruo and Kazuichi Hanawa and are done in the style of Ukiyo-e paintings "Muzane" [無残絵] (drawings of cruelty). There is an oversized fold-out in the back with six black and white Ukiyo-e paintings in the same style and text in Japanese describing such paintings. Each print is on very heavy card stock and the reverse of each print has the title of the work plus an extended description of the scene of murder (test is 100% Japanese).
Complete list of plates (Japanese/English).
Condition: Nearly new and perfect. One or two very small irregularities to covers.
