Musings on Rare Chinese Notes and Foreign Banknotes in China by Nofuku
Shigekatsu
This book is a reprint of a book originally published in 1949 in
Japan. The author, Mr. Nofuku Shigekatsu, was the first coin and paper
money dealer to set up shop in Japan. Now there are many, but he was
the first.
The pictures in this book are of poor quality but in many cases are
the only photographs in existence of the notes in question. Included
in this book are Korean, Russian, Japanese-Manchurian and many other
kinds of notes from the different kinds of banks operating in Imperial
and Revolutionary China.
This book will be of interest to collectors in the newly emerging
field of Scripophilia.
Introduction is in English, text is in Japanese and the paper money is
mostly in Chinese. All you have to do is be able to read all three
languages.

If you would stop covering up other people's postings and spend that
time studying chess, and if you work hard at it, you might even get
your strength up to 900 and, who knows, you might even break 1000 some
day.

You didn't like the cod fish joke? I thought it was clever. Oh well...
back to Spammy's postings of "rare" fish books in the chess
newsgroup. :-)

Rob ("The Robber") Mitchell thinks he is being funny by covering up
one of my threads.
Anyway, I will explain:
Back in 1991, which is 17 years ago, we intended to publish a book
called "The Japanese Fishing Village Diet". It explained how people in
Japanese Fishing Villages all live to be more than 100 years old by
eating only fish.
We had big plans for this book but just before it was to be published,
the author decided that he wanted to conduct a little more research,
so he wanted to hold off on publication for a bit.
Well, you know how that goes.
So, the book was never published, but recently I was surprised to find
a listing for "Choju Mura Secrets of Longevity" which was obviously a
revamped name for our Fishing Village Diet book.
After checking thoroughly to make sure that neither the Japanese
Fishing Village Diet book nor the "Choju Mura Secrets of Longevity"
were ever published and there are no plans to publish any such books
any time soon, I decided to kill the listing by publishing another
book with the same number.
I did not want to use an important book for this purpose, but when we
decided to publish "Musings on Rare Chinese Notes and Foreign
Banknotes in China" which is a strange old and extremely rare book
published in a combination of Chinese, Japanese, Korean and English
(which should be fine as long as you can read all four languages) I
decided to use that book to overwrite the other one because, after
all, who would want to buy a book on old Chinese banknotes,
So, when the listing came out yesterday (not two days ago) I was not
expecting to sell any.
Imagine my surprise when I sold one almost instantly.
That is why I fear that the buyer might think that he is buying a book
on how to live to be 100 by eating fish.

You should find something new to carp about. Anyway, why would anyone
use a fish when farmers have a hard roe to how and corn-cobs are
plentiful? Anyway, your chum Phil is offended by dick jokes, and you
guys have all hung together up 'til now.

Amazing. I actually sold one of these books and it only came out two
days ago.
I hope that the person who bought it is interested in old Chinese
banknotes and did not think that he is buying a book about how to live
to be over 100 years old by eating only fish.
