Description
Three cloth-bound volume covers lie overlapping against a plain light background, in olive-brown, dark teal, and maroon. Each bears a vertical white title-slip inscribed with black calligraphy reading the album's title, with the teal and maroon volumes' slips further marked "二" (two) and "三" (three) to indicate their sequence. The covers show visible wear at the corners and edges, with frayed cloth and small stains.
