Hey man! So I am curious if you have any suggestions for retailers that ship to the US for mokuhanga/prints? I’m specifically looking for reprints as my wallet isn’t super heavy to invest in real authentic pieces, and I’m also just totally not confident in my ability to spot a legitimate original production unless it was brand new/modern. Any suggestions? Appreciate your Ukiyoe-e videos!
There are some publishers like Unsodo (.net) who sell a number of 20th century prints and modern reprints of Hiroshige, etc. They are probably a good first spot to try.
@@blueflame9163 It is. I remember walking into an antique store and seeing these black metal frames and recognizing them immediately from woodblock prints as being used as a way to channel candlelight in a specific direction.

Ok, it's on the list. I do have...opinions about it.

Do you find better deals online? I’m starting a collection and live in Yokohama so I was planning on visiting some shops in Tokyo soon.
Yes, there are a few sellers on yahoo auctions that I trust to sell the real thing (and I can usually tell from photos anyways.) You can start there.
@@Exjapter thanks for your response. Collecting seems like a cool hobby and good way to learn about Japanese history
