Murakami Papers

[sabiji]

I´m looking for Informations about Murakami Papers (Toen Sha Origami ?). Are there a Rating System, and if yes, with wich Levels. (In my Example of paper i read "Jo Jo Saku"). And how is the Value of such Papers.

There's a bit about it on Dr Steiners site :

 

TOEN SHA ORIGAMI

This organization was founded and operated by Murakami Kosuke sensei, a student of Hon'ami Koson, and once a member of the NBTHK Juyo Shinsa. The organization issued several levels of papers which are quite highly regarded. When Murakami sensei passed away some years ago the group disbanded. (Information courtesy of Arnold Frenzel).

The group hasn't quite disbanded. Murakami sensei's top student Nakahara Nobuo (see NMB article on suriage) still lectures all over Japan, writes articles for Shunka Touen Magazine, and has students. Also there is the Shunka Touen kantei kai presided over by polisher Inutsuka Tsuneyuki, the son of Inutsuka Tokutaro of Token Oshigata Taikan fame.
