The artworks displayed on JAODB are not for sale

Notes (1st edition)This version has no artist seal and the title at the lower left (as opposed to the upper right). I have ample evidence to show that this and other unsealed Hasui postcard scenes were sold by Watanabe Tadasu in Pigeon Bus Tour envelopes circa 1950s/60s/70s, so officially published by Watanabe. I have no idea why a Hasui seal was not applied.
Publisher (this edition): Unknown Watanabe Watanabe Watanabe

Koban Size Japanese Woodblock Print

I have at auction a koban size woodblock print. Measures 5-3/4" high x 3-3/4 wide. It is in excellent condition. The print is mounted at its top rim only to quilted paper mount. The print could easily be removed from the mount without damaging the print. As shown in the photo below the ink on the print has bled through the paper. I have not identified the artists name for this print.
Thanks to Sergey for this image. Japanese woodblock print of a temple in snow scene by Kawase Hasui or very much in his style. Identifying stamp on lower left (see below). Print size about 5 5/8" x 3 5/8" tipped along top onto a card. In good condition with no foxing. Good imprint.
One of several Hasui (or in the style of Hasui) prints I am offering on eBay from an estate sale. Previous owners said that these were originally acquired in Japan in 50s.
