This is a vintage New Kojien (新編 広辞苑) dictionary, presented in a durable faux leather binding. The title translates to ‘New Japanese-English Combined, with Penmanship,’ indicating its dual function as a dictionary and a guide for Japanese penmanship or calligraphy. It is a ‘Popular Edition’ (普及版) edited by Dr. Yoshinobu Iura. Published by Nagaoka Shoten (永岡書店), this dictionary is a valuable reference for students and enthusiasts of the Japanese language, offering comprehensive entries and potentially examples for writing Japanese characters. The book shows signs of age and use, consistent with its vintage nature, but remains fully functional. A handwritten inscription with a date of November 28, 1973, is present on an inside page.
