At a large regular bookstore, I found EuroTalk series' Japanese edition. From what I see, the same lady is introducing Pekingnese, Cantonese and Korean(!): different lady introduces several south-Asian languages.

This store has a stockpile of historical maps and printings. Not an ordinary used book store but a collectable-lovers friendly one.
