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) and the fan is decorated with red maple flowers and pink cherry blossoms and depicts travelers, one of which is on horseback, with a castle in the background. Three slips are under the fan: the pink one reads Hamamatsu, the yellow one reads Enshu kite (tako), and the green one reads Bosa. The bottom quadrant on the left contains a depiction of oval-shaped and square kites. The right slip reads Tokaido on the group mark. Two boats on a river with text reading Tenryu River are depicted in the fan frame, decorated with camellias and chrysanthemums. The three slips under the fan read Mitsuke, famous product (meibutsu), softshell turtle (suppon) and [Ue] matsu, respectively from the right. The bottom quadrant contains a softshell turtle climbing out from a basket.
