Japanese Fishing Woodblock Fishermen Pinback Button

Vintage Japanese Woodblock Print Showing Fisherman - This is a beautiful vintage print from Japan, originally published in a book called "Masterpieces selected from the Ukiyoyé school-Vol4" housed in the Mellon Posner Center Library. ("Tajima, Shiichi, 1869- ed.") This fishing scene is a lovely Japanese Woodblock Print, showing a person on the left catching a fish with a big swish of the fishing pole, the fish is brought up from the water. On many of our gifts, there are two other figures in the foreground. The Japanese figures are dressed in traditional old-fashioned Japanese robes, and they're sitting on the dock as boats go back and forth in the background.
