Artist Japan, all 60 issues, De Agostini, with special binder

De Agostini, known for publishing collections and themed items weekly, allowing people to collect them to complete a series.

This is a set of all 60 volumes of "Artist Japan" that my family purchased (apparently the final volume is volume 61, which is an index, and this was not purchased).

They are stored in special binders that can hold 10 issues each.

According to my research, the publication ran from January 2007 to March 2008.

As shown in image 4, there seems to have been a giveaway campaign, but we did not apply for it, so there are no cut-outs or anything like that.

However, due to the nature of paper, some issues have stains. (See images 11 and 12)

Since there are issues with stains and issues without stains within the same binder, it is believed that it is not a storage error, but rather a problem with the paper quality of the issue.

Please see image 8 for the artists included. I think it covers a wide range of representative artists, from Ukiyo-e to prints, and modern and contemporary artists.

The following is an excerpt from the official website:
≪"60 masters of selected Japanese paintings. A gorgeous and attractive collection." Hokusai Katsushika, Taikan Yokoyama, Korin Ogata, Sesshu, Kaii Higashiyama, Takehisa Yumeji, Toshusai Sharaku, etc. By binding them in special binders every issue, you can easily enjoy an art collection of paintings and prints. Each issue features one Japanese painter, introducing their representative works, as well as their life, the background of their works, and the era in which the painter lived, with rich visuals and easy-to-understand explanations.≫

Individual sales are not possible.
* I may consider selling by binder (i.e., in units of 10 issues), but I cannot accommodate requests such as selling a total of 10 issues.

I could reduce the bulk if I could take them out of the binders, but I'm not sure how to do it just by looking at them.
I'm not sure if I can take the booklets out without damaging them, so I will send them with the binders.
Please note that they will be quite heavy and bulky.

I hope someone will find them useful. 20251130
