Description: Two pairs of two unit votive slips, both with the 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 the scenery of Hiratsuka with a mountain and some teahouses in the background. Three slips are under the fan: the pink one reads Hiratsuka, the yellow one reads Hanamizubashi sweet buns (manju), and the green one reads Choso. The bottom quadrant on the left contains a depiction of the same sweet buns along with wrapping material. The right slip reads Tokaido on the group mark. A shrine gate (torii) is depicted in the fan frame with a bridge and some buildings in the background, decorated with camellias and chrysanthemums. The three slips under the fan read Fujisawa, souvenir (miyage) in Enoshima, and Uedaoto respectively from the right. The bottom quadrant contains a small screen decorated with seashells (kaizaiku byobu) and a package of Japanese pickles (tsukemono).
