Seller of mizugashi,fruits and sweets

Carried on page 139 of the October 4, 1872 edition of The Far East. A vendor of fruits and sweets. This farmer is selling persimmons. Persimmons are as abundant as apples are in Britain, says the explanation, and it is a wonder why they are not exported to Europe because they will probably be liked by Westerners.==Date:First year of Meiji, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number17‐55‐0]
