Grandfather's Envelopes Marie Laure ChamorelHiromu Kozaki created paper envelopes from everyday unused items. He called these his "paper work," and without publishing them or selling them to anyone, he continued to create an enormous number of envelopes every day, from morning to night, until the day he passed away at the age of 95. This book includes 104 items from the envelope collection discovered by his granddaughter, Sakiko Fujii. All of them are nameless pieces that Fujii treasures.
