    Description

    I've had this (and another Chinese scroll I'm listing) a very long time. I'm imagining I purchased it in the 80's, probably at an antique store or something like that.  I lived in Hawaii and I'm thinking that is likely where I got it.
    It's a small scroll that's a reproduction of the "Spring Morning in the Palace of Han".  I've seen museums where they open entire scrolls and have them on long tables enclosed in glass so you can view the entire scroll and perhaps I imagined that someday I would have such a table!  I believe though the way you're supposed to enjoy them is by unrolling a small section and following the story through to the end.
    This is boxed with an information sheet.  The scroll itself measures almost 5 inches by 82 inches.  It's made of smaller prints painstakingly matched together and glued on the scroll.
