The house is on top of a hill surrounded by trees. The stone stairway to access it is also pictured. The scenery is painted mostly in black with ochre details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are three basic types of shikishi paper—calligraphy (poem, haiku) only, calligraphy with pictures, and pictures only. Since the Heian period, people have been writing waka and haiku on Shikishi paper (various sizes), but in the Meiji period, they started using paper of the current size. In the current day, shikishi paper\/boards are used for autographs of celebrities and also commemorative messages to friends, coworkers, and classmates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCardstock paper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC1970\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eItem weight: 54 grams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePacked weight: 254 grams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApprox. \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e24 cm wide × 27 cm tall\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood condition considering age.
