MASAHIDE SCHOOL & KOKUIN

[Gilles]

Dear all,

 

I am looking for essays in english about the Masahide School and the study of fakes signatures and Kokuin compared to genuine ones. I already have the Nihonto Koza (shin shinto volume) which deals about that case but I wonder if any other publications and studies were made or translated in english ?

I know that the Japanese published quite a few books about that school. If any of you have translated books about that topic for sale, I would be very interested in.

 

Best regards,

Tanobe-san touched this subject in his Nihonto Wo Miru. It was an essay about mei forgeries. I've gathered the relevant data for Masahide, hope it helps!
