1950s self study textbook
Another textbook from my "how they used to have to learn Japanese" collection, this was first published in 1954. As was normal for a textbook of that time, it is entirely in romaji. It spends a fair amount of lesson one trying to teach you pronunciation. Interestingly, the author wrote this with the self studying individual student in mind, though he does recommend that you "hire a native tutor", ideally "one who hesitates to speak English" and a "talkative person who is not too highly educated"
