Vintage SIGNED Black OBI Sash w/ HANNYA MASKS 12” by 12’

Specifications

This is a beautiful Obi with 2 fascinating Masks PAINTED on the silk. I believe that this Obi is at least from the 1920s-1930s because I have found other silk Obi examples with an Identical signature. The Obi seems to me to be in great condition. A bit of the the paint has worn off, but it does not detract from the overall appearance of the masks. If you know something about this Obi or Obis Ike it, I would appreciate any knowledge you may impart to me. Please look at all the pictures. The Obi is 12 feet long and 12 inches wide. There is a small flaw (hole? Pulled thread? Snag?) in just about the center of the belt. Otherwise I think this is in great condition. see enlarged pictures of the painting!
