                    Medium: Machine printed lithograph
                    Published: Frontispiece to Engei Shashin (演藝寫真), No. 12 (Dec. 1, 1927)
                    Personal Collection
 
                    Note: Although one would expect this to be Vol. 6, No. 12 of Engei Shashinchô
                    (演藝寫真帖; 演芸写真帖), the magazine changed its name to Engei Shashin
                    with no volume number given.  Given that the January 1928 issue was Vol. 2,
                    No. 1, this issue is de facto single issue of Volume 1 of Engei Shashin.
 
                    This would appear to be No. 35 in the series Thirty-Six Selected Actors
                    (三十六家選 (その三十五)), although the print is no longer so identified in the
                    table of contents.
