2013大規模企画展(56)「この絵のコマ絵（画中画）は、展示資料55の絵に対抗する、料理屋番付西の大関の、王子にあった「海老屋」です。宣伝役は八代市川団十郎ですが、役柄は『大船盛鰕顔見勢』に登場する市川鰕蔵こと5代市川団十郎の「海老ざこの十」。5代市川団十郎が寛政5（1792）年の初演時、雑魚海老の「しゃこ（鰕）」とへりくだって鰕蔵を名乗ったことに因んで付けられた役名で、以来団十郎の家の芸となりました。(Illustration of a famous restaurant in Edo with a kabuki actor: Ebizako no jū)At the top of this picture is Ebiya, a restaurant that was located in Ōji. The character is Ebizako no Jū of Ichikawa Ebizō (5th-generation Ichikawa Danjūrō) who appeared in the kabuki play, "Ōfunamori Ebinokaomise," and the actor is the 8th-generation Ichikawa Danjūrō. The "ebi" of the stage name, Ebizō, meaning "the shrimp," was adopted at the time the 5th-generation Ichikawa Danjūrō performed in his first play in 1792, as a show of humbleness. The name stuck, and it has since been passed down through the generations of Danjūrō's family.」
