        Note: Uzaemon XV also performed
        this role at the Shintomi-za in April
        1923 with Nakamura Utaemon V
        (中村 歌右衛門) as Masaoka
        (政岡) when Chikamine was
        active as a print designer.  I
        cannot rule out the possibility
        that this print reflects that
        performance.
