eBay #923284398 Title: NI PO RI ”日暮里” i.e. Nippori (name of place at Taiko-ku in Tokyo) By H> Takemura (Negative-Positive seal) Please kindly refer to plate #39 atpage 27of Koitsu Chigasaki catalog. Its original drawing was also illustrated as plate #72 at page 32, which is "Suwa-no-Mori (Shrine) at Nippori （日暮里諏訪之森）" or "Nippori in Tokyo （東都日暮里）" You might read as "Hi Gure Sato" in kun yomi reading but I confirmed Nippori is located in Arakawa-ku in the northern part of Tokyo. At present you can visit Suma-no-Mori Shrine (as depicted in this print) near West Nippori Station in Arakawa-ku.
