昭和モダン 広告デザイン 1920-30s Showa Modern Advertising Design 1920-30s  

15

Imagine Japan in the 1920s and 1930s, when cities became increasingly international, with new restaurants, cafes, and shops popping up; this is known as a "cosmopolitan culture."  People were also obsessed with design, using posters, fliers, and even product packaging to promote products in novel and interesting ways. This book is like a treasure chest filled with over 200 of these old advertisements.  Looking at them will make you feel both nostalgic (like a trip down memory lane) and excited (because the designs are so cool and different).
