Usagi Yojimbo DojoBoard

I just found this print while looking for Usagi stuff.



Is it authentic? It's not on the UY.com "Prints and Poster" page.

It is authentic. And, as can be seen in the image, it is a limited to a run of 250 s/n prints. They were produced by a Canadian friend of Stan's by the name of Paul Lau (hopefuly, I spelled his name right) in 2004.

This was the second of three limited edition Usagi prints which Paul Lau issued, with the first one being the "Blue" or "Portrait" print released in 2002, and the third being "The Duel" print released in 2005. All of the s/n prints were issued with Certificates of Authenticity.

As far as the Dojo's "Prints and Poster" page, unfortunately, it is severely limited on it's contents currently.

Also unlisted on that page is the Dark Horse s/n Usagi Yojimbo print (limited to 100 pieces) which features the cover art from the Twentieth Anniversary Art of Usagi Yojimbo Coffee Table Book.

Abayo.....

That's an awsome print. Part of the reason it doesn't appear is because I've never seen it!

hehe, I own #12 / 250

I guess I'll buy it then...

Just 1 more question:

Who's the character to the right of Usagi? I recognize Tomoe and Gen, but not the other.

Are you referring to Katsuichi Sensei?

On a seperate note, there is a copy of the s/n "Blue" or "Portrait" print up for sale on ebay currently, as well. (#240 / 250)

This blue portrait would make a very nice stamp !

I just bought mine. Rabbit Valley still has one more, so if anyone wants it...

One more thing: Does anyone know the dimensions of this? Rabbit Valley didn't say.

The image area is 10.25x13 on a 11.25x14.25 sheet of heavy paper. It is signed on the bottom right.

This image was also used for the giant giveaway poster at my signings in Poland.

You know- the lesser the # the greater the value . I have a Doll made of China (and shes a Chinese looknig doll with a panda- so cute!)- #214 of 1,000 Go you!

I just got an email from Rabbit Valley saying the print is sold out, and I will not be getting one after all. I've already got an "Item Shipped" email from them, so I have no idea what's true as of now. I emailed them, and I'll just wait to see what's going on...

Grrrr...It was sold out after all. I guess I'll be looking for a new one now.
