In "Morisada Manko" written by Morisada KITAGAWA, there also is a description saying "The night of July 7 is tanabata. In Osaka, people play throughout the day while beating drums. In Edo, people hang colored tanzaku on a green bamboo and place it high on the roof".
その他、喜多川守貞の『守貞謾稿』にも、「七月七日、今夜を七夕という、今世、大坂ニテハ、・・・太鼓など打ちて終日遊ぶこと也。江戸ニテハ、・・・・青竹ニ短冊色紙ヲ付ケ、高ク屋上ニ建ルコト。」とある。
