This old greeting card from the early 1900's has, loosely attached, a wood block print with the artist mark. The card is yellowed with age but the print is still bright. Measurments for the wood block print including the narrow borders are 5 3/8" X 3 3/16" and the card measures 4 3/4" X 7". It is a used card.

| Artist Bio: |
Published via Takemura Hideo in the 1930s. We originally read the signature scrawl as 彰世 (Akiyo) but a recently discovered print has an artist seal that clearly reads 朝花 (Choka) - see item 47147 in the database.
