This card was sent by an individual named 秋元 (Akimoto)—though we are unable to decipher his first name—from 摂津神戸兵庫 (Settsu Kobe Hyogo) on July 15, 1889. He lists his address as 兵庫 宮前町廿六番地 両栄社 (Hyogo Miyamae-cho 26-banchi Ryoueisha) and addresses the recipient, Maeda Yoshihiko, as 油絵師 (Aburaeshi, meaning "oil painter").
While Ryoueisha is likely the name of a business, we have been unable to determine its nature or purpose. Additionally, without knowing Akimoto's full name, further research into his identity has proven challenging.
