YANMJ2 Yang Zhendong ed: MAOTAI JIU TUZHI. (An Illustrated Survey of Maotai). 茅台酒圖志 。 楊振東 主編. Beijing, 2018. 313 pp. Colour photographic illustrations throughout, many full page. 29x21 cm. Wrappers. GBP 170.00 Basically, a photographic homage to the cult of the most famous of Chinese 'bai jiu' spirits, Maotai, which can now command astronomical prices. Shows many bottles of Maotai, with much variety of design, old and new, together with advertising and propaganda material promoting this very strong spirit. Illustrated throughout in colour. A good visual reference on a much-coveted Chinese commodity. Chinese text. Immediately went out-of-print. The edition snapped up, apparently, by Maotai producers and enthusiasts. Subjects: Food and Drink Item 681 in List 211. URL for this record: hanshan.com/?y/YANMJ2.HTM Record produced by Hanshan Tang Books, www.hanshan.com. |
