Description
I bought 2 of these directly from China. They are supposed to be "The Art Of War" by Sun Su.
I have no idea if that is what they are really about but if you can read Chinese maybe you can tell me.
From what I have read about these they used to be manuscripts that were written on scripts of bamboo. They did not have book covers before. Both of mine do.
I was told that these were emperor books.
I bought these because I liked them and if they are genuine that will add even more.
The bamboo is bound together and there is a front cover and a back cover. The back has cloth glued to the back. They completely open up and make a manuscript that is over 6 feet in length.
Very unique.
I may offer one of the two for sale if the appraisal is really good.
