Not very erotic either except maybe to 15-year-old male.

Why you think such poor product have any "value"?

Good luck,
Cal

I agree with you, these are not old, but can't say with any certainty when they were painted. certainly within the last 20 years I'd think. the box may be old or may also be doctored to look that way. the inscription is dated to 1914, in Tianjin, a gift to someone named Mao Wenqi.
