Abstract
This report is about the NAMA materials previously held by German publisher Ernst Wasmuth concerning three books, namely Japanische Architektur (1952), the second edition of Das Japanische Wohnhaus (1954; English translation 1955), and Der Japanische Garten (1957; English translation 1957), including photographs, original drawings, and layout instructions. Their author, Yoshida Tetsuro, was a leading architect of the Ministry of Communication of Japan during the inter-war period who retired there to work as a professor at Nihon University. Those materials seem to be prepared during the post-war period to his death from disease in 1956.
