	Notes (first edition)?:	This scene appears to have two versions. It can be found with Nisaburo Ito's seal at the lower right, or with Tokuriki Tomikichiro's 徳 (Toku) seal in the upper left, with no artist seal. The publisher of this Ito version is Matsukyu, Tokuriki's print shop. I thus have no idea why this scene was published by Tokuriki under two different artist names.
