児玉又七 編 · 1880 · 大橋堂 · 15 pictures

An 1880 Japanese ehon picture book, Kusunoki Ichidai-ki volume 11, compiled by Kodama Matashichi and published by Ōhashidō, aimed at general readers and young audiences. Its woodblock-printed pages show armoured warriors in dramatic battle scenes with dense vertical Japanese text beside the figures, offering a designer strong examples of bold black-and-white line work, crowded composition, and text integrated into illustration.
