A Rare & Authentic Meiji period original, c.1890, Japanese erotic art shunga woodblock print picture book by an artist of the Utagawa School with two homoerotic scenes enclosed.  There are a number of other interesting shunga scenes throughout the book, as well, as it is quite a thick, litle book.  For reference, the first five images shown here detail the two homoerotic scenes enclosed. 
 
Shunga book measures 16.8 cm x 11.4 cm and 1.2 cm thick closed.  Decent to very good impressions.  Condition is very good with some minor wear and soiling.  Please judge from the photos provided. 
 
67 picture pages in total, with all pages being shunga picture pages, no kanji text pages to note of.  Of course, not all of the shunga artwork is shown here as we can only upload and display fifteen total images.
