If this item is out of stock, we can create one for you upon request. Please contact us. *Please note that delivery may take some time in this case. The cover paper is printed using stencil printing, resulting in a retro, woodblock print-like finish. Please enjoy the unique texture that may include slight printing misalignments or fading, as this is an intended part of its artistic charm. Areas with multi-color printing may exhibit more pronounced misalignments. We invite you to appreciate these characteristics as part of its unique appeal. *If even minor printing variations are a concern, we advise against ordering, as these variations are inherent to the printing process. The use of semi-water-soluble ink means that colors may transfer if rubbed strongly. Please be mindful of this. As this item is handled frequently, we suggest using a commercially available Goshuincho cover for protection.
