Peter Bleed Posted October 23, 2017 Report Posted October 23, 2017 Bernard, It looks to me like you have done the hard work. I sure can't add anything, but I'm pleased to have seen this gun. Thanks.Peter Quote
Bugyotsuji Posted October 23, 2017 Report Posted October 23, 2017 Fairly typical highly-decorated small-bore Sakai gun by the Enamiya family. Seems to be in good condition. Date-wise possibly late Edo. The name is not quite right. It should be Enamiya Yohei. (Also, the signature is not typically written.) 1 Quote
