Description
Two pairs of two unit votive slips, both with a red group mark (Hakkakuren) at the top and an advertisement for Sennyoko on the top right-hand side. The upper quadrant of each part contains fan frames with scenery. Both slips include the name Utashige. On the left slip, the group mark reads fifty-three stations (Gojusan-tsugi). The fan is decorated with red maple leaves and pink cherry blossoms and depicts the scenery of Kanagawa with a harbor and some buildings. Three slips are under the fan: the pink one reads Kanagawa, the yellow one reads Kamenoko rice crackers (senbei), and the green one reads Hai OO. The bottom quadrant on the left contains rice crackers on a tray with a cup of tea. On the right slip, the group mark reads Tokaido. A ferry with passengers is depicted in the fan frame with some trees and buildings in the background, decorated with camellias and chrysanthemums. The three slips under the fan read Kawasaki, “local specialty” (meisan) Yone sweet buns (manju), and Hai OO respectively from the right. The bottom quadrant contains a basket and a pear, two famous products of that area.
