Hello friends, do anyone of you know how to read Japanese? I bought this at a garage sale this weekend. Original signed and inscribed left margin. I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

There is information to be had in that watermark,......

It's just below the signature,... in red.

At full magnification I see it, but not clearly.

They all loved to paint fuji. The top of fuji should be reddish pink. The value of these is based on how faded they become. The crisper the better.
