Dubbed an “American-Japanese Bartenders Guide,” this slender volume was most likely made for bartenders in international hotels that catered to American tourists and GI’s. It not only illustrates proper glassware, it offers every drink translated in Japanese. Very collectible, it is immaculate with only some slight separation from the binding.
