The turtle creature thing is a "kappa."

thanks cogito and tom 61375!!
strange stuff i thought it was a Tengu No Tamago , but it is another varition
maybe holding a betelnut (slight chance )
one way or another imo this must be good stuff
greetings Waki
sorry to intrude , this has to go to an expert, because i believe it is EDO period
you can.t play games with Edo versus Meijji periode because of the possible value differences
this feels good
