絵本岩見武勇伝
An 1888 Japanese picture book (ehon) titled Ehon Iwami Buyūden, compiled by Arakawa Tōbē and published by Kinkōdō, presenting a popular warrior tale in woodblock-style prints. The pages show samurai in dramatic action with swords, smoke-like clouds and interior architecture drawn in bold black-and-white line work, with dense Japanese calligraphic captions set in blocks along the margins that a designer could borrow for layout and lettering.
