Toto Saijiki - Toto Saijiki

Japanese: 東都歳事記 - とうとさいじき

A wooden book that arranges the annual events of Edo and its suburbs in monthly order and provides a brief description of them in the late early modern period. Edited by Saito Getsshin. Includes illustrations by Hasegawa Settan and Setsutei father and son. Five volumes of half-sized paper. Published in 1838 (Tenpo 9) by Subaraya Mohei and Ihachi of Edo. A second volume was planned but never published. A third fair copy from 1829 (Bunsei 12) remains, but it seems that the publication was planned for around 1830, with additional content added later. Based on the basic material, "Enlarged Edo Annual Events" (one volume, illustrated, first boarded in 1803), this is the most detailed document on annual events from the end of the early modern period.
