Geoff,I'm not sure what conclusion you've reached - are you saying that just because your print has 'urushi' (by the way, it's more likely sumi mixed with glue to imitate lacquer), you've concluded it is genuine? That could be a mistake, as there are plenty of reproductions employing glue printing. I hope you have an original, as it would be a wonderful and rare find, but you should verify your print by comparison with an original or show it to an expert.John
