| Notes (this edition) These notes were written by the original owner/seller/auctioner of the item and may be inaccurate.: | Monday, 25 April 2005 This block print was found in an original envelope from publisher S. Watanabe, Ginza, Tokyo. The envelope was safely stored flat in a portfolio and I will be auctioning the Watanabe envelopes too. Circa 1920's or 30's or earlier? And in Near mint condition. Hopefully a close-up of the artists signature will help you identify him. This wood block print measures 4 15/16" x 7 5/16" and total size including paper it's glued on is 6 13/16" x 9 1/4". This print is glued to under sheet along top. |
