A wide range of works which showed the spread of yokai culture was collected in these books: pieture scrolls. nishiki-e, hanpon (woodblock printed books). kimono, netsuke, x70, and toys, selected from a diverse collection of yokai materials acquired over the course of thirty-odd years Fortunately, these two books met with a huge response, and quite afew requests to see more of the materials. There were also many requests for a more complete picture ofthe books, such as the woodblock printed hanpon, of which only a small part had been shown. The support from the fans who love yokai led to the publication ofthis book. Jn this book are the hanpon Bakemono, the hanpon One Hundred Monster Poems by One Hundred Poets, the hand-drawn book The Book of Faces (previously featured in Yokat Wonderland), the hanpon Monster Pieture Book, the yellov-covered storybook Deep Mountain Grass: A New Tale of Bakemono, and three minianure books (mamehon): ‘The Twelve Months of Bakemono, Kintoki Defeats Bakemono, and Bakemono (previously fearured in Fokat Museum), Chapter 1:'The Bountiful Yokai of the Edo and Meiji Periods fearures books other than The Book of Faces (/inmen Zosha), Bakcmono isan amusing portrayal ofall sorts of household-object yokai ‘swarming over startled humans, while One Hundred Monster Poems by One Hundred Poetsis a parody ‘on the Oguraa My aku Tsshu with yokai poems ssccompanied by illustrations.
