Yes, that is precisely why I brought them in. My last shipment ended up staying in Portland and Denver.

The sumi is very sanke like and not so showa like except for the fact that it wraps and streaks instead of being a sanke 'island'. I think the olsen's have a very good example.

Yes, this is more like the second Showa I posted. It has a very big, strong Kohaku pattern. I believe the sumi will be very similiar.

Excellent. Looks like there may be a new showa or sanke in my future. Looking forward to the show. I assume these will be in QT until the show?

They will be out, if all goes well, a week or so before the show.

Jr referred to their showa so thought you might like to see it.

I had a busy day today so I was only able to take a few pictrures. I pulled what I thought was a Kohaku only to discover this is a Sanke. It is difficult to see the sumi in this picture, but it is lurking.

Here are a few Showa.

Here are a couple of Kohaku.

Here are a few Sanke.
