"The first horizontal print is Clear Weather after Snow at Nihonbashi Bridge (Nihonbashi yukibare no zu), from the series Famous Places in Edo, Newly Selected (Shinsen Edo meisho) published between 1840-42."
So that's actually a Hiroshige I, then. (I had a momemtary heart attack when I saw that that series was not listed in my 'List of Hiroshige II Series' page: http://www.hiroshigeii.net/series.html)
"The second vertical print is Kameido Tenmangu Shrine, from the series Thirty-six Views of the Eastern Capital"
And I have a very red face! I had a 'crash' between two similarly named prints ("Plum Garden, Kameido" and "Kameido Tenmangû Shrine") which resulted in an incorrect image being displayed for the latter. Fixed now...
