Description : Publisher seal of Kyoto Hanga-In on the print verso. Included with each woodblock print is a windowed folder for viewing your print, and a full explanation of the scene (in Japanese).Publisher seal of Kyoto Hanga-In on the print verso. These Sharaku prints by the publisher Kyoto Hanga-In are the most authentic later edition prints of the original works I have seen, even surpassing those of the renown publisher Takamizawa. The dark thick mica background is not overly "glossy" like other editions, and the simulation of cracked mica by heavy embossing is very realistic.
