The major treasure is a 1960's era stitch book, "2000 Patterns of Design and Figure Knitting" by Y. Miyashita. Yes, a 1960's knitting stitch book from Japan! The cover, title page, and 2 pages of legend for reading the symbols are in English. This book is wonderful! Such beautiful laces, textures.

Published by Miyashita Shoji Co., Ltd in Tokyo Japan in English. It looks like it was published in the 60s. It is geared to Machine Knitting but because the Japanese use standard knitting chart symbols. It can use if for hand knitting without much change.
