Meiji Era Japanese Kanban

There is rare, and then there is ultra rare. Still in very good condition, the Kanban announces the future redevelopment of Tokyo Senmon Gakko to soon be renamed as Waseda University in 1902. Waseda University is still situated in Shinjuku City, Tokyo

It’s of that period (probably 1900 or 1901) and originally the carved characters were highlighted in gold and/or red

Single facing, with original reinforced “keyhole hanger” 

This is 100% one of a kind.  27”H x 9.5”W
