Rare Edo-Period Illustrated "Ogura Hyakunin Isshu" (One Hundred Poets Anthology) — Early Hand-Printed Edition, ca. 16701700

This is a rare early Edo-period woodblock-printed illustrated edition of the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu (Anthology of One Hundred Poets, One Poem Each).
The book features exquisite woodblock portraits of each poet accompanied by their waka poems written in flowing kuzushiji (cursive kana) script.

The calligraphy, paper quality, and illustration style all indicate a late 17th to early 18th century Kyoto or Osaka printing.
It was once owned in Mikawa Province (modern-day Aichi Prefecture), as indicated by an inscription on the cover:

> “三河国幡豆郡佐久島村” (Sakushima Village, Mikawa Province)



This regional provenance makes the book especially valuable as a surviving local cultural artifact.

Condition

Old and delicate; some wear, tears, and stains consistent with age

A few child’s doodles or marginal notes appear on several pages — these do not obscure the main text or illustrations, and may add to the book’s historical character as a long-preserved household item

Binding slightly loose but complete; all illustrations visible


(If you prefer, you can add: “Minor ink doodles from a child’s hand can be seen in a few margins — these are part of the book’s long-lived charm and authenticity.”)
