Steve Olsen in Japan, who coordinated the effort, committed to making a small run of these prints available for Bujinkan buyu and art enthusiasts to purchase for their private collections. The A3 size prints feature two photos of Hatsumi Sensei and twelve of his artworks (ten from the Earth book and two from Heaven) designed to fit in an A3 frame (example) and are roughly 11.7" x 16.5".
