島鮮堂編纂所 著 · 1928 · 島鮮堂綱島書店 · 1 picture

A Japanese book published in 1928 by Tōsendō Tsunashima Shoten, compiled by the Tōsendō editorial office for readers of gidayu chanted drama. The surviving picture is a title page with an ornate border of stylised flowers and a central cartouche carrying Japanese characters, set in vertical text. A designer could take its symmetrical framing, the floral arch border and the vertical lettering as a model for ornamental title layouts.
