A page from a historical Japanese Shogi (chess) puzzle manuscript titled "Shogi Zuko" (Shogi Puzzle Manual). The page is divided into two main sections: on the right, the large-scale vertical text of the title and author; on the left, a framed area containing move notation for a puzzle. The notation is written in traditional vertical columns, using Kanji for piece names and numerals for board coordinates. A red circular seal is visible at the bottom of the title section.
