Ray Singer Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 This is a poster made to commemorate mukansa swordsmiths Yoshindo and Kuniie Yoshihara's visit to Dallas in 1980. The brothers came to demonstrated the making of Japanese swords at an exhibition held at the University of Dallas in Irving, Texas. Signed by Yoshindo Yoshihara. Please see below for a few related articles discussing the exhibition in 1980. Please note some condition issues, including scratches and some dings to the corners. Mounted on foam core. $200 (plus PayPal). Would prefer local pickup in South Florida, but will discuss shipping options and costs if requested.
