Old Early 20thC Japanese Signed Woodblock Print *NR*
…… It is difficult to see, but there are Japanese characters impressed into the bottom margin of this early 20th century Block Print. Including the margins it measures 10” by 15”. At the very bottom you can see a ¼ inch tear. Also, there was a label or something once attached to the back at the bottom, which is no longer there. This has left a feint mark which you can see in my close-up photo. I was able to purchase this antique Wood Block Print for a great price and to make sure that it sells there is No reserve. …… If the high bidder wants it I can send the frame and glass this print came in.
