Great catalog of what must have been a superb museum: the Arashiyama Museum in Kyoto. Seems there are two versions of this catalog. One with the military collection also included, and one without (like this one).

As I understand it, this collection was sadly broken up in 1991 with the death of the owner. Many pieces were transferred to Wakayama, but others found their way into private collections or onto the open market, or were lost.
