First facsimile edition 1 of 200 copies of this scarce reprint of the 1907 Meiji-era original first printed by Yoshikawa Hanschichi. Asai and his close friend the poet Ikebe Toen 1864-1923 conceived and executed tthis set of a Meiji audience by critiquing the tension between the modernizing Japan at the beginning of the 20th Century with traditional Japanese culture and individuals facing off with each other against the Westernization of Japan. These are considered Asai Chu’s best-known printed work and they imitated the popular satirical and comic magazines of the age in Europe. Complete original sets are scarce and Unsodo produced this splendid recreation of the work nicely coloured by Saburo and with extended commentary in Japanese.
