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 waitresses/prostitutes of an inn aggressively trying to entice travelers to come to their shop. Three slips are under the fan: the pink one reads Goyu, the yellow one reads, [gijiyakino took] and the green one reads Fujiu. The bottom quadrant on the left contains a depiction of two pillows with a rolled cloth on it, a hair pin on folded cloth, and a black coiled object. The right slip reads Tokaido on the group mark. Travelers on a horseback and other walking travelers who are passing a bridge are depicted in the fan frame with a background of castles, decorated with camellias and chrysanthemums. The three slips under the fan read Yoshida, famous product (meibutsu) tinder (hokuchi) of Yoshida, and Yoshitora, respectively from the right. The bottom quadrant contains some tinder.
