Description: A gunsmith's storefront in Sakai, Osaka. From: "Izumi Meisho Zue" (1796). The storefront is on the left and the right side of the image. During the Edo period, it was an active representative industry. Gunsmithing is indispensable when talking about the history of Sakai. The comic-like conversation invites laughter.
