The Story of Rice, c.1930

The Story of Rice was published c.1930 in Shanghai. It’s a major job – a fan binding with walnut wood covers and the “Foo” character carved into front board and painted green. The book contains ten hand painted watercolors, each matted in silk depicting farmers planting and harvesting rice. The pages have text in English & Chinese. But I’m still not sure who wrote the book or who exactly published it!
