Can you tell the quality of the paper ?? It's made from 100% mitsumata by Mr. Nishino. He is almost the same age with me and his great grandfather worked for Echizen Washi very much to join in Paris Expo in 1900. He got an award then for his paper. 

His mitsumata paper was also used by Aubrey Vincent Beardsley ( 1872-1898 , UK ) . Mr. Nishino once asked me to check Beardsley's work to see its paper made by his family.....  But I was in the Netherlands then ! The paper costs about 3,500yen but the quality is very good. Phorographers will love it to print their work on it.
