Book of Chuo-ku [Part 2]

 Last time, we introduced "Chuo-ku Bridge / Hashizume Plaza-Chuo-ku Modern Bridge Survey-" and "Walking in Chuo-ku Ward = Visiting Historic Sites and History-" (9 books in total). (→Book of Chuo-ku [1]

 This time, I got a different out of print from the previous one, so I would like to introduce it.

It is a book of all five volumes called "Chuo-ku Cultural Properties". It was published between 1975 (1975) and 1984 (1984) (the first volume I obtained is a revised and revised edition published in 1979).

 The editor and publisher of these books is the Chuo-ku Board of Education.

 The contents of volume 5 are as follows.

 ①Cultural assets of Chuo-ku (1) Historic sites, historic sites, and monuments

 ⑤Cultural Properties of Chuo-ku (5) Tangible Folk Cultural Properties-Tool Box-

 ※①③④At the end of the book, a "list map" describing the location of the cultural properties described in the text is folded.

 Of course, some cultural properties are newly designated depending on the times, so not all of the current cultural properties are listed. However, very valuable photos are also included, so it is a great study.

 The quality of paper and the font used make you feel the times, but I feel that it is also enhancing the values of this book.

 My treasure has increased again.
