A Hundred Heroic Stories

(Eiyû ippyaku den, 英勇一百傳)

Publisher: Fujioka-ya Keijirô

1851-1852

This series is listed as S69 in Kuniyoshi: The Warrior-Prints by Basil William Robinson (Cornell University Press, Ithaca, NY, 1982), even though only one print is described. The prints are about 14 by 10 inches (36 by 25 centimeters), a size known as ôban. I am grateful to Robert Pryor for his contributions to this series.
