Note: This design was used as a woodblock printed program cover for
a Fujiei-kai dance recital performance.  The actual program lacks the
red seal but includes the kanji for Fujiei-kai (藤栄会) at the lower left of
the program cover.  I have not been able to locate a record of this specific
dance performance being performed at the Teikoku Gekijô in 1953.  The
date for the print came from a Yamamoto Takeo exhibition catalog.  It is
possible that the catalog made a mistake with regard to the date and/or
the name of the theater.
