1930 Kesho Mawashi 3 Set

This is a great set from 1930.  This is the first set where each rikishi's drawing is made to look somewhat like the rikishi and not a generic drawing.  This is also the first set that has the Gu-Choki-Pa mark in it.  A nice and colorful set and a great addition to any collection!
