The Ninety-Two Oban-size Color Prints Issued in 1883 As Supplements
to the Textbooks "Nishiki-e shūshindan" 錦絵修身談
In October 1883 [see "Dating the Prints", below] a set of ninety-two full-color oban-size prints designed by students of Yoshitoshi were published by Tsuji Keiji and his publishing house Fukyūsha as supplements, or accompaniments, to the six volume set of textbooks. These prints illustrated the ninety-one short stories in the six volumes. A number of the prints issued were based upon Yoshitoshi's black and white illustrations in the texts. Each of the full-color prints carries the same title as the textbooks, 錦絵修身談 (Brocade Prints for Moral Education), along with the volume number, across its top. The story name, along with its number in the volume it appears in and the page number of the portion of the text it is illustrating appears in a vertical red cartouche.
