JSCA 1876-1908


 


 Superb edition ... colour actual size kobans - paper types and colour keyed.  

  • 2020 ended with discovery of several NK87 LITHO fakes ...   since D11 TS revealed underprints, I have surveyed many kobans.   
  • the NK87 mihon errors are remarkable also.
  • NK87 yellow not remarked
