Comment - Uncut single sheet omocha-e, with four classical kite designs for Edo kites or Edo Kaku kites. The title of the print is written on the selvage above design No.2.

The designs are as follows:

Number
1	Dragon and warrior design; supposedly the story of 'Raiko attacking the demon', a widespread story , even depicted on a stamp, or as a famous surimono by Hokkei
2	Daruma face design
3	"Kanji kite" ("ji tako", "字凧"), design with the character for "Storm" (Arashi, 嵐)
4	A grumpy old man with a black cap addressing a blushing younger one.

Please compare this print with the toy print from KUNIAKI-II,and YOSHIFUJI's Toy Print and his New Collection of Giant Kites, as well as the small edo kite chiyogami from an unknown woodblock artist of the Meiji-era.
