説明：

"Sen-ja-fuda" (Thousand Shrine Emblem) is a strip of paper with one's name and other personal information which will be pasted to the walls and columns of temples by pilgrims. These labels, which testified the pilgrim had visited the temple or the shrine hundreds kilometers away, were monochrome and simple at the beginning. But they became colored and more elaborately designed as the pilgrimages became increasingly popular. Nowadays, Senjafuda are collected by hobbyists. On September 1st in 1923, the massive earthquake, Richter 8.4, jolted Kanto area. The collapsing building and the following inferno killed 140,000 people and devastated Tokyo. (Right Sheet) People are trying to escape the fires. (Middle) The Statue of Saigo in Ueno park which became one of the centers to put up the missing-person notices. (Left) Survivors and relatives carrying signs of the names of missing persons.
