The East Asian Library at Princeton contains a substantial collection of books, journals, photographs and ephemera related to the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923. In this article I introduce the more ephemeral items, including government notifications, posters, maps and flyers. Amongst them are flyers concerning lost children, notices about free accommodation for pregnant woman and exhortations not to believe rumors. Many of these items have now been digitalized and they constitute a valuable research collection
