Japanese Drama
SOLD September 2006 |
Two slightly oversize cabinet-card format printing-out prints of traditional Japanese actors ca. 1900, both with gilt imprint on card front for M. Sato (Japan).
In the first card, one character holds a pinwheel at center while to her left a very strange being, perhaps representing an evil spirit, gesticulates while holding a giant ax. Card has some very light stains and a white emulsion chip to left of the the rightmost actors head. The second card has a brown stain lower center.
