Sumo Ranking Sheets
I don't know too much about this but I received this while I was working in Japan from 1992 - 1995. They are the ranking sheets for the sumo players of the time including Konishiki and Akebono. Approximately 22 1/2 inches by 17 1/4 inches.
My Japanese aunt's brother was somehow connected to one of the sumo houses. He gave them to me.

Dear Kathleen,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The presented object appears to be a Ranking sheet which indicates the actual masters and the ranking of the athletes of the Japanese Sumo wrestling competitions for the years 1992-1995. The several times folded sheet has the measurements of 22 1/2 inches by 17 1/4 inches. Such ranking sheets were used as information for bedding. Sadly this is a mass-produced printed piece that was made in very high numbers.
This piece is in good condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 0 to 5 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
With kind regards,
George
