So, it's a manuscript and not a scroll with pictures? I guess that's an important distinction for a dictionary to make, or perhaps it's a cultural understanding thing.
Ah, quick google search says emaki contain both pictures and text as opposed to just text. Is that the correct understanding?
As for the Exhibition, it appears it was in '67, from October to November, from the dates on the catalog. How lucky to have one in your collection! I imagine they'd be rather rare and hard to find.
