earliest translation of Pudovkin in Japan?

[Aaron Gerow]

According to the Tsuji Kyohei bibliography, the German edition of Pudovkin's Filmregie und Filmmanuskript was published in Japanese translation in 1930. A translation of the English edition of Film Technique (using the 1933 new edition) was published in 1936. Pudovkin was one of the most cited Soviet theorists/filmmakers in the prewar.

Of course translations of Soviet montage theory appeared in magazines from the late 1920s, including I believe excerpts of Pudovkin. Yamamoto Kikuo's book lists some of them, but my copy is at the office right now.
