Condition: Print is tipped at top two corners to card board. Some pin holes, some small or tiny repairs professionally done, most likely a very long time ago. This print is still in amazing condition. Colors shows some overall fading, consistent with prints from the 18th century, but are still great.

Notes: Extremely rare print from Eishosai Choki. Look around, and try to shop for an original print from Choki, and you will see that there are almost none. Even museums don't have this particular print, from the same era than Sharaku.
