- It is presumed to be made in the latter term of Edo era (1800-1870).
- Its author is Sansantei Arindo and it is illustrated by Baichou-ou Kunisada. Johno Denpei used the pseudonym Sansantei Arindo as gesakusha (which means a popular fiction writer/ dime novelist)
- A very rare find, not many of these have survived to this day as they were the equivalent of dime novels, not intended to be preserved or long lasting.
- Very collectible
- Made in Japan
