Japanese sosaku hanga woodblock print with hand-applied color by Ono Tadashige (1909-1990) signed at the lower right "T. Ono" in white ink. Attached to a sheet of handmade Japanese washi paper inscribed in black ink in kanji verso with the artist's signature, the title "Fugu" (Pufferfish), and date of 1959. At the lower left in pencil is "No. 12" and the lower right appears to hold the original price (rubbed). The washi backing sheet measures 12 3/8" x 18" (image: 11 7/8" x 17 5/8"). Very good color and overall condition. There are a few pieces of tape and tape stains to the backing sheet.
