解説かいせつ

The sugoroku boardgame begins at Ōsaka's port Ōsaka Hakken-ya, and ends at the Edo capital. The poems included in each space are written by famous actors from Ōsaka and kyōka poets from Naniwa region in Ōsaka and Owari province. According to the publication information listed on the right of the print, this sugoroku was most likely made to be sold on New Years. The publisher's address lists Shinkyō-bashi in Ōsaka. Yoshiiku most likely was commissioned to create this work as he was based in the Edo capital.

The space for Fujisawa post station includes a poem by Kabuki Actor Morita Kanya XI. The poem discusses Yugyō-ji temple and Oguri Hangan, a legendary figure with deep ties to Fujisawa area, refering to his journey from the temple grounds to Kumano hot springs on a cart in order to heal his emaciated and sickly body.
