    Description

    Poor - Fair Condition. This woodblock print is glued between a black mat and a cardboard. Some age discolorations and mat burn on print's margin area. Fine scratches on image. Strong color or impression. Circa: 20th century, pre-1950s, Japan.
    The print has a small tear on the upper right area. The black mat has some wears and damages at edges. The back cardboard has a page from New York Times newspaper. Though the page does not have a date, I think that page was from March 3, 1937*.
    REMINDER
    : I am not able to remove the mat & board (to examine the print's borders), so I cannot be sure which edition or when this print was made.
    Mat Size: approx. 16-1/4" x 11" inches
    Image Size: 14" x 9" inches
    I will pack and ship this print for safe delivery.
