        Note: It is unlcear if this is from the same magazine as
        Eiga Sutâ Sugao - Manga Hogoita (1927) by Kitazawa
        Rakuten shown elsewhere on this site.  The two pieces were
        acquired from the same dealer at the same time and are
        ascribed the same date, but appear to bear different artist
        signatures.
