解説/Description
明治10年前後の東京の全37種類の商人を番付形式で一覧したもの。その内訳をみると呉服屋や小間物など江戸時代以来の商人が大半を占めるが、なかには写真や時計、ガスランプ、蝙蝠傘などのように幕末維新期以降に創業した商人も存在し、あわせて明治初期東京の商業の実態を知る上で貴重なデータを提供してくれる。著者の尾崎冨五郎は、佐野屋(のちに錦誠堂)の屋号をもつ版元であり、同時に五葉舎万寿の号をもつ戯作者でもあった。
This is a list of all 37 types of merchants that existed in Tokyo around Meiji 10 in the form of a ranking. The breakdown shows that the list mostly consists of merchants who have continued their business from the Edo period, like owners of kimono stores and general stores, but there are some merchants who started a new business from the late Edo period to early Meiji period, such as selling photographs, clocks, gas lamps, and western-style umbrellas. This list offers a valuable data on types of businesses that existed in Tokyo at the beginning of the Meiji period. Ozaki Tomigorō, who created the ranking, was a publisher named Sanoya (later Kinseidō) and was also a fiction writer under the pen name Goyōsha Manju.
