Musings on Rare Chinese Notes and Foreign Banknotes in China byNofuku Shigekatsu
Musings on Rare Chinese Notes and Foreign Banknotes in China by Nofuku
Shigekatsu This book is a reprint of a book originally published in 1949 in Japan. The author, Mr. Nofuku Shigekatsu, was the first coin and paper money dealer to set up shop in Japan. Now there are many, but he was the first. The pictures in this book are of poor quality but in many cases are the only photographs in existence of the notes in question. Included in this book are Korean, Russian, Japanese-Manchurian and many other kinds of notes from the different kinds of banks operating in Imperial and Revolutionary China. This book will be of interest to collectors in the newly emerging field of Scripophilia. Introduction is in English, text is in Japanese and the paper money is mostly in Chinese. All you have to do is be able to read all three languages. http://www.amazon.com/dp/092389103X |

I hope that the person who bought it is interested in old Chinese banknotes and did not think that he is buying a book about how to live to be over 100 years old by eating only fish. Sam Sloan |

Sam Sloan It's My Cod-piece fish. ? Rob ("The Robber") Mitchell thinks he is being funny by covering up one of my threads. Anyway, I will explain: Back in 1991, which is 17 years ago, we intended to publish a book called "The Japanese Fishing Village Diet". It explained how people in Japanese Fishing Villages all live to be more than 100 years old by eating only fish. We had big plans for this book but just before it was to be published, the author decided that he wanted to conduct a little more research, so he wanted to hold off on publication for a bit. Well, you know how that goes. So, the book was never published, but recently I was surprised to find a listing for "Choju Mura Secrets of Longevity" which was obviously a revamped name for our Fishing Village Diet book. After checking thoroughly to make sure that neither the Japanese Fishing Village Diet book nor the "Choju Mura Secrets of Longevity" were ever published and there are no plans to publish any such books any time soon, I decided to kill the listing by publishing another book with the same number. I did not want to use an important book for this purpose, but when we decided to publish "Musings on Rare Chinese Notes and Foreign Banknotes in China" which is a strange old and extremely rare book published in a combination of Chinese, Japanese, Korean and English (which should be fine as long as you can read all four languages) I decided to use that book to overwrite the other one because, after all, who would want to buy a book on old Chinese banknotes, So, when the listing came out yesterday (not two days ago) I was not expecting to sell any. Imagine my surprise when I sold one almost instantly. That is why I fear that the buyer might think that he is buying a book on how to live to be 100 by eating fish. Sam Sloan |
