Sayagaki

[sz_waldmann]

Hello, 

 

This is the final piece of the puzzle of my last buy. I managed to either get help with the rest or translated it myself (yay!) but this one eludes me.

 

I figured that the rightmost coloumn is probably a date, but that is as far as I got.

 

Could somebody please have a look at it?

 

thanks,

The top part is a date, the bottom part is the name plus the signature of the person who did the sayagaki (sort of a calligraphic flourish called kaō in Japanese).

 

Unfortunately the date is mostly unreadable to me. Maybe Moriyama-san (aka the poster known as "Nobody") can read it. 

囗長年囗月　（卯月？）uzuki = april

 

The signature is also unreadable to me. 

杉本？　Sugimoto + kao?

I cannot read/write grass script except very simple characters.

The part of the sayagaki is too hard to read for me.

 

At first, I guessed the date was

甲辰年 (Kinoe-Tatsu no toshi) - 1964

卯月 (Uzuki) – April

However; the second kanji does not look 辰, and it looks more like 長. That denies my guess.

Thank you for your effort!
