    The aim of this

    publication was to be a modern visual history of Japan, which was edited and published by the
    Domei Tsushin-sha
    of Tokyo with the support of contributing newspapers throughout Japan.  It served to introduce photographic real conditions and features, as well as embellishments for Japanese military strength and
    propaganda
    issues, being produced to convey the best mission presenting successes of then, the country of Pre War Japan.
    Distinctively presented photographs concerning developments in political, economic, military and social activities of the country, with brief written explanations.  Also, inclusive is a chronological record for the year's events in both photographs and brief descriptions.  There are thirty-eight advertisements (several in full-page) which illustrate significant commercial marketing of this era.
    Page after page after page of remarkable photographs.  Please review the accompanying pictures which are representative throughout of content and condition of this book.
    Historically, this almanac is uniquely informative of that era.
