Note: Ganjirô I starred in the premiere of Wan'ya Kyûbê at the
Naka-za in Osaka in
March 1906. He would later perform the role in Toyko at
times when Nagai Seijirô
would have been active at the Shintomi-za in February 1913 and
again in November
1920, though this print likely depicts some regional theatre
performance.
