Other Notes:
In 1935 Yoshida completed the Cherry Blossom set plus 9 other prints of Japanese scenery. 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.
