The archive is fantastic. I especially like Matsuras humorous photos.

I love that he uses props in so many photos! Horns, pipes, hats, etc. Everyone seems to be having fun, which is in contrast to a lot of other pictures from that era.

This mural was big news when they found it earlier this year! Exciting local history for sure.

Thank you for posting this...my country.

Happy to share, it's wonderful country!
