I hail from heart of Europe and I'd like Mr. Kubota-san to know, that his work has positively impacted many more people than he might have realized in his selfless career. His legacy will live on.

Kubota-san, you gave the world a great gift.

Mr Kubota is unmatched when it comes to printing, the quality is beyond what anyone can do in the forseeable future. A true inspiration, and an enrichment to the world of art.

Your work shines just as brightly as the other pieces of art that illuminate the night sky. Please do not undermine all the art you've created, all the hours you have worked to perfect your craft, and the thousands of hearts your work has touched. Thank you

You mean so much to many people around the world who love you and your work, and it's my sincerest wish that you can see the impact you've made with them all.

Thank you.

Kubotasan, I only know you through Dave, but I always loved to see Dave excitedly open the packages of prints from you, and to see him rave about the quality of the prints. Truly you have been a national treasure and your work will inspire woodblock printers for eons into the future! Jerry Geier from Vermont, USA.
