Valerie,
I overlooked your shunpusha album.
The cover title of this illustrated book by Yoshitora is "Bujutsu hyaku yusen" (One Hundred Heroes of the Military Arts) published in 1 volume by Shoendo in Tokyo.
The British Museum has also a copy (Registration number: 1928,0201,0.2).
I'll check next week for the date of publication (via the censor's seal) in my reference books. Probably early 1870s.
