Can anybody identify this hanko/maker

Hi All,

can anybody in this form identify this maker?
It's a 1.8 kinko.
I think its reads NIGHT-BELL(or chimes) = Ban-Sho

Re: Can anybody identify this hanko/maker

Hi Ken2t, It certainly reads Banshou (nightfall, chimes), but I have never seen it before.  I've added it to the hanko database though.  Thank you.

Re: Can anybody identify this hanko/maker

I was just talking to John Singer (not usually a philosopher) about the elusiveness of identifying these hankos. We were bemoaning the lack of clarity in hankos because someone sent us a photo of a bunch of flutes and their hankos.

John said, "It is just a bunch of twigs anyway."

lol
