August 2003

Work toward the championship of The Central Reague. The Hanshin Tigers is the professional baseball team which is the most popular in Kansai area in Japan.
On September 15th 2003, The Hanshin Tigers won the victory for the first time in 18 years.
Under this Hanshin fever, I'll show you clay bells of tiger.

Minato Yaki kiln
A big mouth and big teeth are the feature of this clay bell.

Tigers with "A-Un" pose. "A-Un" means the state which one mouth opened and another one closed. Kurama-dera temple in Kyoto Pref.

Tigers from Ise-Jingu shrine, Mie Pref. As Ise-Jingu is one of the famous shrine, many Japanese go there to make wishes for the coming year in New Year's Day. These clay bells are typical cute souvenirs as a memory of visiting.
