The seller is listing 1780 copy of the Kozukenosuke-Kira estate floor plan and surrounding streets. This is the estate which the 47 Ronin attacked in order to capture Lord Kira and get revenge for their lord's death.

 

The seller notes the 1780 copyist was apparently a member of the clan holding the estate, who had access to the original (1703) floor plans. Many notes accompany the diagrams, apparently describing the estate and attack.

 

As always with exceptional items, buyer beware. With three days yet to go in the auction, bidding is presently (Oct 10) 36,500¥

 

Condition: Fair - aged, stained, ink stained, foxing, wear

Auction ending: October 14
