Samurai warriors greeting each other

The scene of samurai exchanging greetings is recreated, with the two bowing deeply in the official attire of haori coat with family crest and hakama trousers. The Western-style handrail in the back was a fixture of the Ueno Hikoma studio in Nagasaki, where this stereograph seems to have been taken by Wilhelm Burger.==Date:Middle Meiji (1883-1897), Place:Nagasaki, Photo:Wilhelm Burger, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number70‐1‐0]

A family celebrating their child

The boys are probably brothers with their older sister. They wear haori coats and hakama trousers. The woman holding the younger brother on her knees is probably the mother and the woman on the right her mother-in-law. A woven bamboo basket containing rice cakes or perhaps chimaki dumplings is nearby. This is probably a photograph to commemorate a Meiji Period Shichi-go-san children's day festival, because the padded clothing indicate early winter.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:Usui Shuzaburo, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number94‐2‐0]

Soldiers in armour

The men are wearing armour that seems to be the military attire of the time. The gold circle and design on the torso protector of the man on the right seems to be a family crest. The man second from right is wearing a helmet with a frontal ornament called a tentsuki. The man in the centre holds a baton of command, a tool used to give orders on the battlefield. The man second from left stands with a flag bearing his family crest and holds a bow and sword.
