Note: The folder says the play is Ataka
Benkei (j安宅辨慶).  Chûsha VII also
performed this role in an April 1921
production at the Shintomi-za, so it is
possible that this print relates to that
performance.

Ichimura Uzaemon XV (市村羽左衛門) as
Dainaiki (大内記)
          
Play:  Igagoe Dôchû Sugoroku (伊賀越道中双六)

Print Date: 12/1919?
Artist: Utagawa Kunisada III (歌川国貞)
Series: Chiyo ni Sakaeru Kabuki no Irodori

Note: Although the print indicates that Uzaemon
XV performed at the Kabuki-za, this appears to
be a mistake.  The only performance I can find
with Uzaemon XV in this role was at the Shintomi-
za in December 1919.
