I'm cataloging a collection of Surimono prints, and this particular item is not throwing any matches on my regular image search sites. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Two more from the same source that are stumpers.

The actor is Bando Mitsugoro III

This note is for Maria (Toyokuni question)
This morning I had second thoughts about your print and think I've come-up with a better option, same actor/role but different play/year.
The publisher on your print not the same (Mikawaya Seiemon c.1805-1829, ref. Marks 16-011/328) but there are striking similarities between the two prints

Thanks so much Lucienne!
