It's a discount coupon for a Chinese laundry in San Francisco.

this is by Kunisada Utagawa ,later became TOYOKUNI III,the inset print often has nothing to do with the main picture,the caption in Kansi characters refer to a series of heroic act in history.
By the way,like the Chinese counterpart,Japanese kabuki acts are all performed by men,thats why you see some women look kind of you know what??

yes,they are all men.
if you are interested ,watch the movie called 'farewell my concubine',it tells you about 2 boys who grew up in an opera school,the school principal decides early on whether they should play male or female role.
The movie won best picture award at Cannes film festival with 'The piano'.

Just be sure to note these IMPORTANT observations:
1) They are HOLDING HANDS!
2) The prevert on the RIGHT has a TUNING FORK stuck in his hair-piece!
3) The other creep-a-toid (kneeling) has covered his head with a LARGE DIAPER and is...CHEWING ON IT!
Speaking for myself & Ralphie, I do not feel this item belongs in a family-friendly venue such as eBay!
Geeesh!

these are called GETA CLOGS,that way they dont get wet in the rain.
But if you want to tell if it is a man or a woman,look at their feet,a dead giveaway.
Back in the old days when clients come to be entertained by geisha in the gay quarter called Yoshiwara in Edo(now toyko),some prefer geishas will long slender toes ,when they have sex and she reached orgasm,her toes will curl.

Tom...The same way you make an Ebay seller moan. Pay her with Paypal and do a chargeback later.
