[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 400574, member: 8267"]Hasegawa was an important Japanese publisher, producing many series of pretty little books such as yours. [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hasegawa_Takejir%C5%8D[/URL] Prices in America tend to range from $100-250 each, sometimes more if the condition is exceptional, or in areas with a large Asian population. English versions might be priced higher here. Be careful about using plastic bags for storage, or even temporarily while for sale.
