Posted By: RH Tue, Jun 30, 2015 The top photo has a sig' at the bottom, but doesn't look anything related to Kunisada? |

Posted By: Stan Sat, Jul 04, 2015 The sig doesn't look like a signature but it wouldn't hurt to show us a close-up. The prints have been creped which was popular in the Meiji period/late 1800s. The colors used were also popular in that period. The printing, in particular the justification of the blocks, doesn't seem to be that good. |

Posted By: Stan Mon, Jul 06, 2015 I don't read/speak Japanese. However, I'll reiterate my earlier comment. That doesn't look like a Japanese signature. More like squiggles. I'll let a Japanese speaker correct me. |
