'Masterpieces Selected from The Ukiyoye School' was published in Tokyo in english between 1906-1909 with text from 1869 by Shiichi Tajima and is online at Carnegie Mellon University's Posner Library. There are perhaps 10 more colour and 15 black and white images not seen above.
It wasn't until after I had jagged and tweaked all these images that I realised that there are actually 4 volumes in this series, so I'll probably try to make up a post from each book in the coming weeks.
Wikipedia's entry on Ukioy-e has a host of links for anyone curious.

Thank you so very much for this post. A real treat, pleausure - a gift of great value to me, and inconditional Japanese art fan.
These are lovely!
