Thank you for any help you might be able to provide with what i have here and if it has any value.

Good luck,

Jeff
 

As far as your Japanese prints, I can't help you much. Can you read what it says below the main title? The picture beneath the Japanese prints look like an etching instead of a drawing. I can't make out the artist's name, but due to a lack of edition info, I suspect early twentieth century.

I can't make out the artist's name, but due to a lack of edition info, I suspect early twentieth century. The title is "Farmer and Child". Back to your Japanese prints, the publication looks like it was produced for an American market, you might check the inside front cover for some more information (publishing dates, ect) or possibly a forward.
 

Thank you Zero, I appreciate the info. Any estimate on what the etching might be valued at?

Good luck,

Jeff
 

Without identifying the artist, it's impossible to say. However, even original Rembrandt etchings go for less than $100 on feebay all the time.

I was going to suggest that myself.
of course pic #2&3 is Mt Fuji none of the Japanese printing is sharp enough to read.
can you get a sharp photo of the Japanese you want translated?
post here but send me a private msg so I know to look for them. Sometimes I can't get to this forum for several days at a time (work is busy)
