Medium: Machine printing

Note:  Hasui designed 34 machine-printed covers for Engei Shashin (and its precedessor
Engei Shashin Chô) between October 1925 and July 1928.  Many of these issues contained
machine-printed forntispieces.  Since they were offset printed, they are outside the scope
of this website.  An exception, however, has been made for this calendar, which appears to
be unique in the Hasui canon.
