Very Fine. Skillfully executed "bokashi" shading throughout; nicely visible woodgrain

crisp key-lines, much fine detailing. |

Excellent. Very clean front and verso. (Absolutely flawless.) |

A nicely detailed and colorful image of nightime fishing with fire-pots and
cormorants. Very rarely seen. PRE-1923 Earthquake (note: Daikoku-ya Publisher ceased
business in 1923). |
