King of Vintage Heller's Cafe Part.3 ¥6,600 (tax included)
The new work, 10 years in the making since the previous work "Heller's Cafe Part.2" (2012), is finally complete. For the first time in a long while, I've teamed up with Larry Mckoin, the owner of "Heller's Cafe" (Seattle), to feature rare vintage clothing from the 1870s to the 1960s that was not included in "Part 1 & 2."
The theme is "uniforms born from the industrial revolution of the early 20th century."
This book is highly recommended for fans who "love clothes to death!" regardless of genre.
