I purchased these woodblocks at an estte sale and I do not know a great deal about them. I believe they are from the 50s or 60s. They are very whimsical. They were in frames with wood backs, that had a sticker with some information. This is shown in the photo. They measyure 17-1/2" x 10-3/4". I have 2 more that belong in the set.

A Japanese woodblock print by Nagai Iku of mythological spirit, oban tate-e, c. 1960, excellent impression and condition. Slight tape residue on reverse. 10.5" X 15.75".
