Heaven Has a Face; So Does Hell: The Art of the Noh Mask
Bestseller #3 Noh Theater Costumes
Information
A remarkable combination of superb artistry, sophisticated design, and a lengthy history of continuous usage sets the masks of the Noh theater of Japan apart from all others. That so little is known outside of Japan about their great beauty and brilliant craftsmanship prompted the author to undertake the two decades of study, research, and writing that has culminated in this work. The result is nearly 800 pages of text and images published in a two-volume boxed edition limited to 1200 copies. Volume 1 consists of an extended treatise on the history of Noh and the evolution of its masks, including mask forms and functions, types and roles, nomenclature and taxonomy, mask carvers and their lineages, signatures, and other markings. It includes plot and character synopses of the plays most often staged as well as others rarely performed, with particulars about the masks used by various troupes for the principal roles.

Bestseller #6 Noh Theater Costumes
Information
A near fine copy or perhaps a little better. Has an original very tiny lightly off-color glaze thin about 1/4 inch long spot and a little edgwear at very edge on the spine. It was in the publisher's shrinkwrap which I took off to examine the edition and coyright, etc. on the book and then discovered that it is not a perfect copy but close to it.
