| Series Information: |
| Published on the 5th of March, 1930, as a series of six prints in a limited edition of two hundred sets by Sato Shotaro. The series was sold as a set of all six scenes in a cardboard tatou folder containing the series and print titles, dating (March 5, 1930) and publisher information. Interestingly, there are also two extra scenes containing the series title that were not included in the series set: The Daimonji Festival, and The Sloping Path to Kiyomizu, so perhaps they were issued after the release of the six-print set. |
