This book presents over 200 signs, shop window displays and street decorations from the late Taishō to the early Shōwa period, when Japanese cities underwent a major transformation.
In a time when cafes, bars, fruit shops and clothing stores lined the streets and urban culture flourished, signs and lantern decorations were important elements that shaped the cityscape.
This book offers a fascinating journey into the visual culture of Japan in the 1920s and 1930s.
