1938 Rikishi 4 Set

    Description:  This is a very rare and very beautiful set.  I call these "Museum Quality" sets because of the quality of the drawings, printing and colors.  This set is accented by gold ink along the fringes of the kesho-mawashi!  A great Rikishi series set if you can get your hands on them.
