Subject:Japanese Noh print identification of marks
Posted By: Tom Aspden Wed, Mar 25, 2020 IP: 146.199.136.182
Hi, just bought this print and would like some help with the title and artist. I know the smaller writing saying that it was made in 1899, but I do need some help with the last 5 characters in the left column of the 3rd picture.

Thanks very much
Tom
