Monday, 22 August 2005 Hi again. Also meant to tell you about 2 other prints I acquired that I think I will try to sell--one of the Koitsu sparrows koban prints that seems to match your "earlier" edition and a Tekiho Koban which I think you are offering for sale. There was a note with them that they were purchased in Nikko in 1965. Cheers, Fran VINTAGE JAPANESE WOODBLOCK PRINT BY TSUCHIYA KOITSU: SPARROWS, SIGNED AND SEALED KOITSU; PUBLISHED BY DOI HANGATEN KOBAN SIZE PRINT MEASURES 9 1/4" X 5 3/4" THIS PRINT IS IDENTICAL TO THE "EARLIER" PRINT FROM THE IMAGE GALLERY AT KOITSU.COM WHICH NOTES THAT THIS IS "A VERY RARE PRINT INDEED."
