Woman playing a blindfold game (treasure mine and gold mine)

Young women are enjoying a game in a Japanese garden with stone lanterns. Their sashes are tied in loose darari-musubi style, and they are wearing bokkuri wooden clogs. The red colour of the juban (undergarment) is peeping through the hem of their kimono. They are of course posing for this photograph. The English title on the lower left reads GIRLS PLAYING. This is a typical photograph produced for foreigners.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number89‐14‐0]

    A woman on the jinrikisha,Kasuga Shrine

    This photo captures a scene with a woman on a rickshaw feeding deer. It is hard to pinpoint the exact location, but it is probably the shrine approach of Kasuga Taisha, as stone lanterns are in the background. The woman is wearing kimono, Japanes-style chignon, and is holding a parasol. The rickshaw man is wearing zori sandals and a hat. This is a stereograph.==Date:1904, Place:Nara, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐21‐0]

                      Five women pose for the camera. Their hair is in shimada and seiyo-sagemaki style. The former features groomed bangs, side locks, and back hair. In the latter the hair is separated at the center of the forehead and pulled back behind the head. The garments such as the long coat, half-coat and padded kimono do not indicate any particular season. The photograph was probably taken just to show how Japanese women dressed at the time.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number49‐4‐0]
