NTHK Shinsa in San Francisco...

[Soshin]

Hi Everyone,

 

Not sure if I should list this here or in the wanted section of the message board. Moderators and Adminstrators feel free to move it if it is in the wrong section. I will not be able to attend the upcoming NTHK shinsa at the San Francisco show and was wondering if I could find someone to take one or two tsuba from my collection to the show to submit to the NTHK shinsa. I would prefer someone who in the USA who might also be submitting things to the shinsa as it would be fairly easy for me to ship them the tsuba before the show in July. I can pay a reasonable fee for the service in addition to the cost of the shinsa and shipping. Please PM or reply to this thread if you or someone you know can help or if you have any questions. Thank you very much for taking the time to help.

I am happy to report that the submissions for this year are coming in and the schedule is shaping up nicely.

If you love the art of Ito Jakucho and others this will be a must see exhibit and it is all happening in The City at the same time as the show and shinsa.

 

Hoping to see you all here,
