When the printed sheets that are to form the two sides of the fans have been handed to the workmen, together with the bam- boo splints that are to form the ribs, the two sheets with which the fan is to be composed are put in between two pieces of pa- per saturated with oil, and properly

After a sufficient time has elapsed the sheets are then removed from the mould to be pasted upon the ribs. Before the folds take their proper shape the fan has to be folded and opened several times, and, when it is put away to dry, it has received more handling than any foreign paper could stand ; in fact, foreign paper has been tried and had to be given up as un- suitable for the work. Prior to 1867 the sale of Japanese-made fans seldom exceeded ten thousand a year, but since then as many as three millions have been exported in a single year from Osaka and Yokohama alone.
