This vertical chūban (medium-size) print is signed at lower-left in the red cartouche "Kunikazu ga" ('drawn by Kunikazu'). The yellow cartouche, immediately to the right, is the publisher's seal, which reads "Ishi wa han," a seal employed by the Osaka-based publisher Ishikawaya Wasuke of the firm Saiundō, who worked with Kunikazu on a number of different series.

The series title is at top-right in the red cartouche with the title of this print in the square yellow cartouche, also at top-right.
