Description: You will receive this amazing lot of eight unposted black-and-white topographical postcards from Japan featuring beautiful Takasaki in Gunma Prefecture near Karuizawa, northwest of Tokyo. This impressive, towering statue of the Goddess of Mercy is a well-known symbol of Takasaki. “You can walk up 146 steps inside the statue, climbing nine levels to its shoulders, where you will be greeted with views across Takasaki. The statue is within the grounds of Jigenin Temple. People pray to the 20 enshrined Buddhas placed within it. The statue is most beautiful in spring, when cherry blossoms from the surrounding temple gardens frame it, and in autumn, when the garden's maple trees turn red and yellow. Byakue Dai-Kannon is 41.8 meters tall and weighs nearly 6,000 tons.” Towers, temples, monuments, parks, bridge and volcano smoke are highlighted scenes. These rare cards come with original paper envelope and are in good condition, unposted. Some signs of age, sold as is. Please see photos.
