絵本難波戦記稚話 3編
This is a Meiji-era Japanese picture book (ehon) compiled by Ban Genpei and published in 1886 by Akashi Chūgadō, a children's edition retelling the Osaka campaign history of the Sengoku period. The pages are printed woodblock-style images of samurai in armour seated and standing in tense conversation, framed by vertical columns of text and bold kanji captions. A designer might take from them the strong black-and-white woodcut contrast, the dense text-and-image layouts, and the stylised angular armour and hairstyles.
