Japanese Press Sheets

Eisenhower

I've been searching the EMP archives and looking at the variety of Japanese Press Sheets, some great art! 
Does anybody collect these or have any they could post? 

Has anybody ever had these linenbacked before? Does the writing/images on the back show through? 

Would they just need a mat if framed w/o linenbacking?

Thanks!

Charlie

You mean Charishi?

Oops! Meant Japanese Press Sheets-edited title & text. 

Charlie

You mean Charishi or B3?

Eisenhower

Don't think it's the B3 as I checked EMP and they don't have the the advertising info on back-at least the ones I've seen.

Ive no idea what/who Charishi is. Googled it too.

Thanks Sven! That info helps a lot!

Charlie

I have probably 50-60 Charishi and a few B3 press sheets.

Charlie

Oh and so had a backed B3 that actually was consigned through emp.  Came in a lot.  It had a sexy girl in bikini maybe a tank or something.  I just woke up.

Charlie

Couldn't really see through it but if I recall you could tell it was double sided.

Thanks Charlie,

I passed on bidding for the Japanese Press Sheet-it was 14x20 as described in EMP, so wasn't Chirashi which Ive read are 7x10. 

Good to know linenbacking didn't show text in a distracting way...

...as the front side Press sheet graphics are great-backside graphics nice but not colorful or as large.
