Note: This print is similar in format to the series
of prints designed  by Kunisada III between 1917
and 1920, and was probably issued by the
publisher in a limited attempt to continue the series
after Kunisada III's death in 1920.  It is also possible
that it is a posthumous reissue of an unknown
Kunisada III design.
