Awaji Doll: November/December 1959 Calendar Page for Furukawa Mining Co.

1959 Calendar for Furukawa Mining Co. - We recently came across these unusual pages from a 1959 calendar featuring images of Kiyoshi Saito's woodblock prints. The Furukawa Mining Co., Ltd., put out the calendar, but we have not been able to learn more about the project. Each large format page features a commercial offset lithograph reproduction of a Saito woodblock, with a simulated wood grain band containing the monthly dates. An intriguing subject for a collector interested in Kiyoshi Saito. We've never seen these before.

Size - 23 5/8" x 16 5/8"
