Reference about Japanese woodblock carvers:
Actually (09/2009) the second edition of the book was published. Now it includes 364 seals from 107 carvers.

Mr. Gordon Friese from the “Buchhandlung & Antiquariat Mephisto, Unna, Germany”, collected 249 different seals from 96 different Japanese woodblock carvers. These seals are not be shown in any other western references about woodblock prints so it’s a very helpful publication for all who want a complete description of those prints which bear a carver seal. The book is written bilingual (German/English) and the price is acceptable (35,- EUR plus p&p). Here (http://www.ukiyo-e.de/Hori-shi/hori-shi.html) you find the email-address for order.

Some more links you can find at Hans Olof Johannsen´s site: "A guide to the Ukiyo-e Sites ot the Internet" - the very best site for links related to Ukiyo-e.

Another helpful site is Jerry Vegder's ones. It is primarily a commercial site but provides also a growing list of index and glossary pages including Edo time publishers.
