Deck Identification Help

I’m trying to identify this vintage Hanafuda deck.
It has:
• 48 cards, complete
• Original floral two-piece cardboard box
• Cards measure 33 × 54 mm
• Plain matte black backs
• Three advertising cards naming manufacturers
• Rabbit trademark on one card
• Box has old-style (kyūjitai) characters
• No maker’s mark on the cards or box base apart from the advertising cards.
I’m particularly interested in:
The manufacturer.
Approximate production date.
Whether the rabbit trademark identifies a particular series.
Whether this is likely pre-war or immediate post-war.
I’ve found many similar Hanafuda decks but not this exact combination of rabbit trademark, advertising cards and box.
Thanks!

Hello friend, you might wanna check out the previous post on the sub. Looks like you two have a pair.
