Dear Dr Walker
I was browsing through your lovely Ohmi gallery site and came across a very
familiar kuchi-e by Gekko. I thought you might like to know that yes it is
from the Bungei Kurabu (Literary Club) Magazine the precise detail being
#16 from December 1st, 1912. I have a copy of this magazine with this
particular kuchi in situ. I do not know if kuchi were 'recycled' by
magazines so am not sure if it was used prior to this date. I have attached
a couple of images that you may find interesting
regards
