Can anyone identify this seal? Or even say what it is. It is on a japanese woodblock print.

Thank you. I thought it was a collectors seal.

This print is from Hiroshige's series Fifty-three Stations of the Tôkaidô (Tôkaidô gojûsan tsugi no uchi), also known as the First Tôkaidô or Great Tôkaidô. It is the Fujieda station.

See the link below for an original at the Boston MFA. The one presented appears to be a later reproduction.

Cheers,
Stan
