Kuze Michifumi 久世通章 toトラウス(F. M. Trautz) **

Kuze Michifumi 久世通章 toトラウス

This 1933 dated postcard is addressed to トラウス (To-Ra-U-Su), instead of To-Ra-U-Tsu, by 久世通章, Kuze Michifumi or Michiaki (1859-1939), and his second wife 田鶴(Tazu). He is the father of 久世章業 Kuze Akinari (1898-1976), Kotohira Shrine priest (read Sept. 12, 2023 post about him).

Kuze Michifumi, a nobleman, politician, author, and chairman of the Kemari Preservation Society, among other roles, provides a window into the personal connections and historical context of the Kuze family during this era with Trautz.
