- Remarks
- 50 impressions as at June 1929
- Many atozuri prints made during the 1970s and 1980s were extremely poorly printed utilising fewer blocks and fewer colour impressions compared with earlier prints. Some prints were missing the metal keyblock's impression. Some had the English title and signature printed over the blue sea or, even reversed, with the signature on the left.
- Republished by Kyodo 郷土出版社 in 1994 in an edition of 380 along with two other Inland Sea prints.

1 Original restrikes and recarved reproductions share the same identifiers (stamped signatures, toku 特 seals, or atozuri 後摺 seals) and are difficult to distinguish.
