Calendar for 1903

 

 
Hasegawa, T. (Takejiro)
Monthly Changes of Japanese Street Scenes, Calendar for 1903, Tokyo (10 Hiyoshi-cho, Kyobashi-ku), Meiji 34 (1902), 12mo (5 1/2 x 7 1/2 in - 13.8 x 19.2 cm), large size for a Hasegawa book, calendar published in a book form, 14 folded crepe paper pages, 28 pages total including covers. The page inside the front cover has an image of Mt. Fuji. The next page contains the title and a listing by month and subject of the woodblock prints for the 12 monthly calendars. Each calendar woodblock print is viewed as a continuous image from the left hand side of page across to the adjoining right hand side page. The subjects of the woodblocks are:

  1. January - "New Year's Day Snowing"
  2. February - "Inari Festival"
  3. March - "The Vernal Equinox"
  4. April - "Cherry Blossoms"
  5. May - "Wistaria in Bloom"
  6. June - "The Rainy Season"
  7. July - "A Night Fete"
  8. August - "Lotus Flowers"
  9. September - "The Moonlight"
  10. October - "Chrysanthemum"
  11. November - "Autumn Tints"
  12. December - "The Night Market"

In his discussion of T. Hasegawa publications, Frederic A. Sharf notes a calendar book published in 1899 titled Street Scenes Calendar and gives the year for the calendar as 1901. Apparently Hasegawa printed calendars for 1901, 1902, 1903 and 1905 (probably other years also) and used the same general theme (street scenes).
