I have kept this item in storage, unused. The shikishi (colored paper) itself is clean as it has been stored carefully. The paper wrapping the shikishi has some discoloration, and the back of the wrapping paper has some stains. Please check the images. This is a rare shikishi, but I have no use for it, nor do I have a place to display it. I am offering it for sale to someone who will appreciate it. I will carefully package it to prevent bending during shipping.
