Illustrations of Japan.

This series is part of Patrick Geddes’ large collection of maps, plans, photographs, prints and drawings of countries and regions around the world. Much of this collection was part of Geddes' Cities and Town Planning Exhibition.

The majority of the collection comprises xerox copies of articles, papers, and correspondence written by, or about, Henry Dyer, engineer and educationist, in the 1870s-1890s.
Original materials in the collection include:

• newspaper cutting: 'some urgent educational problems in Glasgow', likely to be from the Glasgow Herald, c. 1898
• a list of articles, books etc written by Dyer, compiled by Shoji Katoh, Nagoya, Japan, December 1975
