The image shows a set of traditional East Asian books, often referred to as thread-bound books. These books have a distinctive binding technique where the pages are folded, stacked, and then bound together at one edge with thread, creating what is commonly called a stitched or stab binding.

The spines of the books display vertical writing, typical of many East Asian scripts such as Chinese, Japanese, or Korean. Such writing often indicates the title, volume, and sometimes the author or classification of the work. The covers appear well-worn, suggesting the books may be old and have been handled frequently.

The brownish-yellow with black bottom strips covers suggest the use of natural materials typical of traditional bookbinding in the region. The black characters are well-preserved and clear against the contrasting lighter background.

These books are a part of the cultural heritage of East Asia and exemplify the craftsmanship and historical significance of bookmaking in that part of the world.
