Re: Framed Print "Cranes"
Kano Morinobu, also known as Kano Tanyu was a famous 17th Century Japanese artist. What you have is possibly a woodblock print after Kano Tanyu's famous 6 panel large folding screens painting. Your prints shows only 4 of the 6 scenes of the panel.
The original work is held by the Joslyn Art Museum, 2200 Dodge Street, Omaha, NE 68102-1292, (402) 342-3300

Depending on the condition, your prints are worth anywhere from $0 ~ $80.
You'll have to open take the prints out of the frame to verify that they are actually woodblock prints and not just framed photos or magazine or book cut outs.
Post additional info if you have.
Good luck!
