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 two travelers writing “Saicho” on the wall of a building under a big pine tree to the right. Three slips are under the fan: the pink one reads Fujikawa, the yellow one reads famous product (meibutsu) sweet drink made from fermented rice (amazake), and the green one reads Shoei. The bottom quadrant on the left contains a depiction of a jar of amazake with a ladle and lid and some cups for the drink. The right slip reads Tokaido on the group mark. A traveler on a palanquin and other travelers passing through a village with a hill are depicted in the fan frame, decorated with camellias and chrysanthemums. The three slips under the fan read Akasaka, hemp net bag (asanawa amibukuro), and Yamayoshi, respectively from the right. The bottom quadrant contains the hemp net bag.
