Now we're really down to
the odds and ends. This is a piece of hand-printed
notepaper, the sort of thing that used to be very
common here in Japan, but which has of course been
completely blown away by mechanical products.
The incentive for making it was a commission
from the Mainichi newspapers to do a series of
columns on 'How to make a woodblock print'. There
of course wasn't much space in the columns to give
detailed explanations of the printmaking process,
so I made this very simple design to use as the
example print.

Funny, I've never written a letter on any of it
