Note: One dealer represented that the figure was
was Narukami (鳴神).  If true, that would mean the
actor is Ichikawa Sadanji II (市川左団次; 市川左團次),
who played the role in theplay Narukami (鳴神) at the
Teikoku Gekijô in December 1919.  Seeing as Seifû
already designed a print with Sadanji II in this role,
however,  I suspect that the print was stored in the
wrong Nigao-e folder and that the dealer was
erroneously relying on the wrong folder information
to describe the print.
