My distant relative Uncle Bill visited Japan back in 1971 and 1980 and took a lot of photo slides of Tokyo and other places of interest. After he passed away about 15 years ago, I saved his slides from being thrown away. Kodachrome film was used but the camera is unknown.
Love these!!!
First pic is unchanged to this day.
Last picture, middle orange poster is about Hirakata Chrysanthemum flower dolls, my home town!!
We used to have these dolls outside the station or the city hall every year around the same time. They stopped it when COVID hit. I hope they restart the tradition again.
