Description:

I recently bought a set of 3 postcard prints, and I think 2 *may* be by Koitsu. Only one has a title, and neither has an artist seal. I do believe they were published by Watanabe, and quite possibly pre-war, as the 3rd postcard in the group I bought is a known Watanabe pre-war postcard print (Hiroshige, Snowfall at the Gion Shrine…not nearly so interesting) AND they all have exactly the same mounting, mounting card, etc. In other words, all three postcards were treated exactly the same way and appear to be the same age. I'd really like to get your opinion on these two prints.
