LARGE LOT OF VINTAGE PHOTOS OF JAPAN IN THE PERIOD IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING WORLD WAR II, 1940s - 50s

Group of approximately 50 original vintage silver gelatin photos of Japan mainly in the immediate postwar period, circa 1945–1950, most measuring approx. 6" x 4-1/2".

The majority of the images are of modern commercial buildings and streets in Tokyo and environs, but also include other locales (e.g., Yokohama), as well as views of shrines, temples, and other religious structures; the Emperor's Palace; Mt. Fuji; and other subjects. Most are identified in the negative or in a pencil caption to the reverse. One composite photo (with four smaller images) includes Frank Lloyd Wright's Imperial Hotel.

Notes: A very few photos with a crease, smudge, or ink caption to front; otherwise clean attractive, and mostly fine to very fine overall. Please note than any errant white marks in the photos are the result of lighting glare and do not affect the actual items
