From the Treasures at Keio University in Japan. These are (to me) quite exquisite.
They have a few other things at Keio that I'll post in the future.
To make things easy, here are the thumbnail pages - when you click on any image, it will open in a Java applet, which may be a pain in some ways but the zoom is wonderful and there is excellent resolution.
The site is a little slow but I'm not criticizing reallly - the quality of what they offer exceeds any bumps accrued accessing it.
page I, page II, page III, page IV, page V, page VI, page VII
1871 sounds like a good guess judging from this translated (or thereabouts) commentary at the page of origin...
