There appears to be at least two Meiji-era editions. The first edition (possibly published in 1878) has a publisher cartouche in the image area (lower right of the left sheet), while a subsequent edition (possibly published around May 1898) has this cartouche removed and the new publisher details printed in the left margin of the left sheet. |
