Impression information: Vols. 1 and 2 are slightly bigger than vols. 3 and 4, which may have been printed in a later run. The color of the title slips (light blue for vols. 1–2; light yellow for vols. 3–4) and the kanji shiki 四季 (vols. 3–4) used instead of shiki 色 (vols. 1–2) also suggest this title may not have been printed in one run.
Notes: Main title from daisen (vol. 1), short title
Hybrid binding. The folding of each page is in the spine, and the hashira is formed by pasting together the loose ends of each sheet, as in gajōsō (album binding).
