QUAKE, CAUSES SCARCITY
OF OLD JAPANESE PRINTS
Many Fakes Being Sold in Lon
don, Formerly Greatest
Market.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, October 31.-Old Japan
ese prints, as result of the Japanese
earthquakes, are becoming SO scarce
in London, formerly their greatest
market, that the prices have more
than trebled during the last six
months. The collections of the Lon
don art dealers are nearly exhausted
and the hitherto enormous stocks of
the famous Japanese collections no
longer exist. Specimens of the best
schools are no longer obtAinable, and
SO much in demand are the rarer
types that dealers in this little -heard-
of trade are buying all available
prints even before they reach the
auction rooms.
There are at present less than 800
of these old prints In London, accord
ing to Japanese experts. The result
is, they say, that there are many
prints being offered today whose an
tiQuity does not predate the earth
quake, and many have been sold here
and on the continent as genuine,
whereas they are not worth more
than a few pence.
For several years before the war
about 1000 old prints annually were
sent from Japan to be sold in London
Despite this large number, 1t is esti-
mated that one-half of the existing
prints more than 400 years old were
destroyed In the quake. Among them
was one by Hokusai for which Fl, 500
was paid in London just after the
war.
The British Museum now possesses
the finest collection of old Japanese
prints outside Japan. largely collected
during the Russo-Japanese war.
