rebcannonshooter Posted Sunday at 08:34 PM Report Posted Sunday at 08:34 PM Hi Ken, Mark beat me to it as I was typing. The signature appears to be: "Hi-Shu Ju Tada-Yuki". (the second kanji is poorly written, but I can't imagine any thing but Shu.) Hishu can refer to either Hizen or Higo province. There were a few Tadayuki from Hizen/Higo that worked in the mid to late 1600. Would need an overall photo and more detail to give you more than that. Tom 1 Quote
