Shukka Hōkoku ["Shipping Report"]

[Tomimura Naokichi Shōten (commissioned by)].

Tōkyō: Tomimura Naokichi Shōten, [ca. Meiji period (1870-90s?)].

A woodblock used at the Nihonbashi-based firm Tomimura Naokichi Shōten to print shipping forms. Although illegible, the item being sent (possibly a gathering of fabric) must have been shipped often by the company, as they evidently asked the carver to include the text for the item name in the block. Spaces left blank on the printed forms would be filled out by hand. Perfect for use in lessons or exhibitions.

One woodblock, complete. Small chips. Presented together with a printed example of the block. Length 31 x width 15.2 x height 2 cm.
