So, I happened to be at Brigham Young University campus today.
Brigham Young University which is rated as having the third largest college library in the US
BYU where they have an extensive collection of art books.
BYU where they have a distinct amount of interest in the Oriental
BYU where they have a copy of the Golden Age of Japan: Momoyama
BYU where they have scanners.
Here's a bit of a photo dump for people looking for ideas and resources.
Calligraphy
Portraits
Below: Portrait of Takeda Shingen. The design on his outermost garment is incredibly small
Below: Honda Tadaka. This style is interestingly uncharacteristic of the portraiture of the period. Also the design on his hakama are quite small

Items and misc
Below: Apparently chozos existed in ancient japan (for those inclined toward metroid)
Below: This jinbaori is made from Persian fabrics. There is also another one in ‘The Golden Age of Japan’ that is made from wool, which is strange.
Below: A collapsible lantern.
Below: Artemisia power
