[絵本] 〔２〕賎ケ岳七本鎗銘々伝３号

永島辰五郎編 · 1881 · 長谷川忠兵衛 · 22 pictures

An 1881 Japanese ehon picture book, published by Hasegawa Chubei and compiled by Nagashima Tatsugoro, presenting individual biographies of the Seven Spears of Shizugatake. Each full-page woodblock print shows a samurai in detailed armour with a vertical column of kana text beside him, giving a designer a dense, graphic model for armour pattern, calligraphic layout, and the framing of a single warrior figure against a text panel.
