About this poster:
This poster is an example of a hikifuda, a graphic flyer used in Japan between the 17th and 19th centuries to advertise anything from restaurants to accessories, cosmetics, and medicines. It was produced towards the end of the Meiji period (1868-1912), a chapter of Japanese history characterized by Western influence and rapid industrialization.
This print is in fair condition, with some small tears and creasing on edges. See photos for more details.
