Subject:Trying to identify contemporary woodblock artist.
Posted By: Ken Denmead Thu, Mar 15, 2018 IP: 64.62.201.15

Hello! I'm trying to identify the artist on a series of prints we picked up. They are all dated in the late 1970s, early 1980s, and are reminiscent of Saito, but not him. Cannot decode the signature or stamp. Your help is greatly appreciated!

The Japanese inscription reads,
高取  - Takatori (Family name)
I read the right hand side Roman alphabet "Toshiro ..atori" , could be Toshiro Takatori.

With regards,
I.Nagy
