AB - (1) The Hushimi edition refers to 12 editions printed in wooden type by Tokukawa Ieyasu from 1599 to 1606 at Enkoji temple in Hushimi. It includes one Hushundo Edition printed in wooden type. Four books were printed even in modern period.
(2) The material for the type was wood. The type-making technique imitates script writing style and demonstrates quite sophisticated aesthetic touch of the character. Its technical level is upper-lower grade.
(3) The typesetting technique shows vertical and lateral stripes of character trace very evenly aligned. There are some skewed characters, but the thickness of ink color is consistent overall. Its technical level is upper-lower grade.
(4) The brushing technique is generally characterized by fairly consistent dark and thick ink color. It shows high quality, with rare incidences of chinese ink spreads, inadvertent marks of ink on the paper, and double printing. Its technical level is upper-lower grade.
