Must have book for the Toshi Yoshida collector. An interesting book outlining his life, family and work. This is not a catalogue raisonné – unfortunately none exists. The book is often available on eBay and Amazon.

A list of the reference books I own can be found here – Woodblock Printmaker Books. I’d be interested to receive comments on any books you can recommend.
I have “Yoshida Toshi: Nature, Art, and Peace” [Paperback] by Eugene M. Skibbe and cannot find a reference to estimate value. I also have “Varieties of The Japanese Print, Volume 1” and “Japanese Print-Making: A Handbook of Traditional & Modern Techniques.” I have “Yoshida Hiroshi: Print Maker.” Also
“How to know Japanese Colour Prints” by Anna Freeborn Priestly and “Chats on Japanese Prints” by Arthur Frike among others. While I am putting some on eBay, I would prefer those listed above to go to avid collectors. I stumbled googling the Skibbe book on to your site look forward to hearing from you.
Hi Russ,
Usually “Yoshida Toshi: Nature, Art, and Peace” [Paperback] by Eugene M. Skibbe” is available on eBay and Amazon but suprisingly isn’t on either that I could find. ParagonBook have a copy listed for $35 but don’t note whether its new or used. From memory I think my copy cost $36 or $39 new.
If you’d like to send me some images (via the contact us page) of the books I’ll put them on the website and if anyone contacts me about them I’ll pass them on to you. My experience is that it’s easier to sell a book if you include some pics of the inner pages especially so for art books. Also include an asking price/guide if you have one.
Regards,
Mike.
I currently have a copy of this on eBay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/184432642380
I recently stumbled across 4 of toshi Yoshida’s books from the animal picture book series all signed. I also have some personal correspondence between him and the publishing company fukutake where he is explaining his idea of the wild animal book series I also have some Writings translating his writings by Susan matsui. There’s also a post card where Toshi has written a postcard to Fujio Yoshida about his mother passing at 99 years of age in May of 87. Anyone interested in purchasing or letting me know where I would sell such a item?
Hi, I would potentially be interested in purchasing these if still available. Will add email if so.
Rhett – I am interested in this. Please let me know how I can get in touch with you.
