Other Notes:
Reference: Abe Catalogue #94, Blair Catalogue #303 (Toledo 1930). The "jizuri" seal on Yoshida Hiroshi prints is the notation he used to signify that the block was carved and printed under his supervision and met his quality requirement. It is only used on lifetime prints.    
Condition:
Very good condition. Printing smudges on the right margin (mostly the kento mark) and on reverse. Light warm tone to the paper. Very good color. Not matted or mounted.
