Note: During the time when Shikô is known to have been
actively designing prints, Sadanji II performed this role in
Tokyo at the Teikoku Geikijō in December 1922, at the
Asakusa Shôchiku- za in May 1924, and at the Meiji-za in
February 1929.  However, it is possible that this pint reflects a
regional performance.
