Your print is most certainly by KASAMATSU, Shiro "who was born 1898 in Tokyo. He began designing woodblock prints for Watanabe's print shop in Tokyo in 1919 and published many prints with Watanabe in the 1930's. Later, he produced bird and animal prints with Unsodo's shop in the 1950's." (Helen Merritt's book). With a photo, scan, or possibly by description I might be able to help identify specific print--I own several. --Thomas
