This is a set of four books (volumes 4, 6, 7, and 9) from the series "Complete Collection of Contemporary Japanese Photography," published by Sogensha in the late 1950s after the war. The collection introduces Japanese photobooks from before and after the war, and is also introduced in "The Japanese Photobook 1912–1990" (2017), co-authored by leading Japanese photography historians Ryuichi Kaneko and Manfred Heiting. The entire series consists of nine volumes, and is a valuable series that allows you to enjoy the photographers' masterpieces in "large-format" "gravure" prints, supervised by Tsutomu Watanabe, Koen Shigemori, and others. Vol. 1 "Kimura Ihei Collection," Vol. 2 "Domon Ken Collection," and Vol. 3 "Hamatani Hiroshi Collection" are series of works by individual photographers, and from then on, famous works by photographers who were active at the forefront of the time are collected in an omnibus format by theme, Vol. 4 "Realism Collection," Vol. 5 "Portrait Collection," Vol. 6 "Landscape Collection," Vol. 7 "Nude Collection," Vol. 8 "Animals Collection," and Vol. 9 "Mountain Collection." For some reason, this is a set of four books, Vol. 4, 6, 7, and 9, and it comes with a rare box. (Only Vol. 4 is missing the monthly report booklet.)
