Documents related to the arrival of the “Schip Handelmaat Schappy” at Dejima in 1827, 12 items in total. Germain Felix Meijlan, whose name appears as the author of the documents, was the head of the Dutch trading post in Nagasaki from August 1826 to October 1830.
The purchase ledger shows “purchase” of “Holländischer Händel in Japan (Dutch trade document) 1818-27, 1 copy (12 sheets)”on July 17, 1911. The content descriptions of the metadata were based on a catalog prepared by Naojiro Murakami, a pioneer in the study of the history of Japan-Europe relations, who at the time was the director of the former Tokyo School of Foreign Studies.
