Ukiyo-e Collector Seal Database

This resource is quite rough, and not yet a systematic survey, but rather a place to record collector seals I notice incidentally. References to "Andon" are to the article "Collectors' Seals" by Matthi Forrer in Andon 12 (Winter 1983). References to "CSDB" are to the NIJL "Collectors' Seal Database", which is unfortunately no longer online as a queryable resource, but archived here.
