rachb1014 Posted September 10, 2009 at 03:31 PM Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 at 03:31 PM Hello, can anyone help me with what this means? It's signed on the bottom of chess pieces that I inherited. It's too small to take a picture of so I drew it out. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachb1014 Posted September 10, 2009 at 06:13 PM Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 at 06:13 PM I thought my grandma said she got the chess set from China but the more I look it the charters and compare on the web the more it looks like a form of Katakana which would mean it is Japanese. What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Posted September 10, 2009 at 06:22 PM Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 at 06:22 PM Looks like it's 信之 and I suspect it's a Japanese personal name - e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanada_Nobuyuki Could well be wrong on both scores there, though.
