M1899

1899 Large Disks

This is the earliest set of circle menko that I have ever seen and is known to exist.  It’s unknown how many menko are in the complete set but the set dates right at the end of the 19th century and right during the 1899 banzukes.  These are gorgeous woodblock prints and a museum quality set!
