A very similar Wanli mark and period wucai box and cover in the collection of the Tokyo National Museum is illustrated in Illustrated Catalogue of Tokyo National Museum: Chinese Ceramics II, Tokyo, 1990, p. 84, no. 324. See, also, a Wanli mark and period wucai box and cover in the collection of the Nezu Museum, Tokyo, with a restored knob on the cover, illustrated in Nezu Bijutsukan zōhinsen: kōgei hen (Catalogue of Selected Masterpieces from the Nezu Collections: Decorative Art), Tokyo, 2001, p. 87, no. 91. A square example with variation to the design, showing children at play, from the Baofang Pavilion of Imperial Ceramics and the Manno Art Museum, was sold at Christie's Hong Kong, 29 May 2019, lot 2816.
