grrrrr! Japanese Embroidery Book Info

I don't know. I just don't know. I am used to being able to figure things out! Zh. asked me to provide the ISBN# for the Japaneses embroidery book I posted about a few days back. Thing is there is no obvious signs of an ISBN# on this book!

What I can tell you is that the sticker from the store where it was purchased is still intact and a search on the net reveals that the store is still around and kicking (I gather it is a Japanese needlework store). Here is the info for the store.

Yo's Needlework
940 E. Dominguez, Suite O
(Next to the Ramada Inn)
Carson, CA 90746
(213) 515-6473

The only English information I can find about the publisher etc is this:

Printed in Japan (copyright) T. Seto 1981

5077
6828
5759

I know that doesn't seem to help. If anyone is fluent in Japanese and let's me know, I'll scan the characters that appear to be publishing info and maybe it could be translated. I am more than happy to scan anything of interest and pass it along.

Hey! Thanks for taking a look. I'd also have no idea where the ISBN would be on a Japanese-language book but I'm going to take a look for the author on YesAsia.com and try putting to use some of the sleuthing skills I've developed in grad school.
