Help needed with identification/verification of the work title, chapter, volume, publisher, date, edition, etc. translations (english, etc.) also very much appreciated!
Image could benefit from restoration work.
Notes:
Cover illustration for one volume from a set of 10, bound together, covering approximately 5 sequential chapters of the series, including chapter 34 (2 volumes per chapter; note that this number of volumes-per-chapter was not constant for the entire run of the series!).
Uncertain when exactly this edition was printed and whether this printing is from the original blocks; however the artwork is clearly Kunisada I, & this copy was almost certainly published 19th century, late Edo-early Meiji.
