Daimyo Procession and Castle Paper Model Set

Paper Model Sets - Fuji Arts is pleased to offer a terrific group of complete and uncut paper model sets. These entertaining 19th century prints were designed to be cut apart and formed into three-dimensional models. An inset cartouche provides an example of the finished scene once assembled. Using the scene as a guide, the model builder could cut out the different components of the scene from the prints and create the model. Sets usually include a variety of figures, accessories, and background elements, brightly colored and nicely detailed, with subjects ranging from kabuki plays to famous samurai battles.

Not many complete sets survive. Collectors are lucky to own a single print from a model set - a complete paper model scene is an almost unprecedented opportunity. These are incredibly rare pieces and would make a terrific addition to any collection. Take advantage of this great opportunity before it passes you by - bid now!

Comments - Terrific, three-panel paper model set featuring a daimyo procession leaving a castle. This fantastic design includes a full page of samurai figures in armor, including several on horseback. Two arched wooden bridges cross the moat and tall white towers rise above steep stone walls. A wonderful and rare complete, uncut set and a great choice for a collector.
