"Sailing Song"; oban yoko-e (paper size: 12½" x 18½"). Titled ("Uta no soju"), numbered ("46/100"), dated ("69-12"), and signed "Sora" in pencil across the bottom. Condition: very good/excellent. (#A0DL)  Collectors Item or a Fabulous Display Piece as a Work of Art. We believe this to be an Old Printing Tool possibly for Wallpaper. It has holes on the back side that your fingers fit in to maintain a grasp on the piece. The front side is decorated with a Fabulous Floral design that was probably used over and over to ink print wallpaper. This is an educated guess, but who knows? It may have been used to print something else that required a continuous pattern. It is in Very good Display condition and is probably from the 1920-1930 era. Check out all the photos. It has a number carved in one side 3621 and painted on the other end is CY8. Origin unknown but believe it was produced in the good old USA. Great Display piece on a stand as a work of Art or conversation piece.  "Owl"; image = 10¼" x 7½"; O.D. = ca. 17¾" x 12"; two colors on light-weight paper; excellent condition.
