Hi Dr. Barrett,

 

These are NBTHK Kicho papers, sometimes called "white papers". They are dated February 24th, 1980. The papers are written for a "Ken, Mumei, (Sue Tegai), Nagasa 1 Shaku, 3 sun, 4 bu (40.6 cm or 15.98 inches).

 

I suppose this paper is for the Ken in your other thread? :)

Correct. "Sue" is "late" so this is a work of later period Tegai school which is in the Yamato tradition. Many works within Yamato schools (there are five major and several minor that are catagorically included) were unsigned.

This thread is quite old. Please consider starting a new thread rather than reviving this one, unless your post is really relevant and adds to the topic..
