'Origami zusetsu' (Illustrated Origami) by Sano Shozo, was published in Tokyo in 1908. It is a practical guide book for teachers. Its contents are divided into two parts. The first is about recreational origami and the second about etiquettical origami.

Information about the etiquettical origami designs has not yet been fully integrated / carried forward to individual design pages.

A full copy of the work can be found online here.

This book is not a text book. The introduction says, inter alia, 'I believe that this book can be used as a reference for kindergartens, elementary schools, normal schools, girls' high schools, and general households.'
