While these are not the "Run
While these are not the "Run of the mill" Nippon, they are not really rare. We have seen a number of identical examples to yours sold in the last five years as they have come out of hiding from Grandma's attic, or Great Aunt Shirley's buffet. In the current market at auction these usually list with presale estimates in the $800.00- $1200.00 range.
