A Japanese pattern book from 1904 consisting almost entirely of color-printed plates of striped, checked and figured textile swatches, with brief Japanese captions naming each pattern (such as plaids, wavy lines, bird and plant motifs). The colophon gives Kyoto printing and publication in October of Meiji 37 (1904). It is a visual design reference for Japanese kimono-type fabrics, with no weaving drafts or technical instructions.
