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 a post town at the bottom of Mt. Fuji. Three slips are under the fan: the pink one reads Kanbara, the yellow one reads famous product (meibutsu) of Iwabuchi, chestnut powder rice cake (kurinoko mochi), and the green one reads Yariichi. The bottom quadrant on the left contains a depiction of some rice cakes on wrapping paper with a pair of chopsticks. The right slip reads Tokaido on the group mark. Travelers, including one on horseback, are depicted with a background of Mt. Fuji in the fan frame, decorated with camellias and chrysanthemums. The three slips under the fan read Yoshiwara, famous product (meibutsu) sweet white sake (shirozake) of Fuichi, and Fu[ki]kume, respectively from the right. The bottom quadrant contains a jar and a ladle with sake cups.
