Hans,
Thanks for the information. I went back and scanned them again and enlarged the signatures. I only put one of the mystery ones on since the signatures is the same on both of them.
On looking at the postcards I realized that there is mica imprinted onto them. One other thing; Do you know if Toshikata signed his pieces with Roman letters? They seemed to be signed on the bottom but for the life of me I can’t make out the entire signature.
Again, thanks for the help.
Dan
: Artist identification
: Dan,
: The artist's seal on the first two seem to read "toshikata", which would indicate that they were designed by Mizuno Toshikata (1866-1908).
: I can't identify the seal on the others, but if you can provide better images, someone may be able to help you.
: Best regards,
: Hans Olof
