A Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) published in 1880 by Kinmatsudō, with text by Kawakami Ichirō and illustrations by Umedō Kunimasa, made for popular readers. The woodblock-style pages show samurai and townsfolk in tense interiors, with kimono patterns, swords and vertical columns of text that a designer could use for dense graphic layout and pattern reference.
