This special re-print edition of US Bureau of Fisheries' book Goldfish and their Culture in Japan is a short booklet about the culture of goldfish in Imperial Japan. Written in 1908 by Shinnosuke Matsubara who was the Director of the Imperial Fisheries Institute at Tokyo, this classic text contains hard to find details on varieties of Japanese goldfish that were bred over a century ago, including the Wakin (Japanese goldfish), Ranchu (Maruko), Ryukin (Woochoo Goldfish), Oranda shishigashira (Lion Head), Demekin (Bubble Eyed) and others that have been bred in Japan for centuries. Also included are details on how these fish were cared for and bred, as well as how some fanciers artiicially colored them. Lavishly illustrated with rare colored plates. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
