	Notes (this edition)?:	The following information was taken from the original web listing of this artwork. Note that there may be some inaccuracies: Hello Dr. Walker, I am a novice collector. I recently purchased a print, Evening at Ushibori. I see that you have samples of five versions on your site. Could you tell me what revision I have by the attached photo? It would be much appreciated if you could give me any insight on this print. Best Regards, Hello x, Your print was printed by Shobisha during or after the 1960s. A rare 1950s edition also exists by Shobisha that contains a red publisher seal in the bottom margin. As examples see: https://www.ohmigallery.com/DB/ItemDetail.asp?item=11832 https://www.ohmigallery.com/DB/ItemDetail.asp?item=11704 There is of course the first edition by Sakai and Kawaguchi in 1930 shown the database.
