1930218619Japan. Circa 1930. 37 black and white photographs presented in an accordion album 26.5 x 19cm 20pp 2 loose black and white photographs 18.2 x 25.5cm 14.7 x 10.2cm some wear and a few photographs missing but the photographs are generally in good to very good condition. This family photograph album brings out various aspects of a military personnel in Japan. It starts with a letter written by a serviceman who was stationed in China to most likely the owner of this album Kusaka Tadao 日下忠夫 who lived in Wakayama Prefecture. The letter was written in pencil and is difficult to decipher. The pages of one side of the album are filled with the photographs of a wedding: bride and bridegroom attendees and the wedding venue. Probably the most interesting photographs are the four showing the interior of what appears to be the wedding location. The exterior photograph of the well-to-do house is accompanied by another showing beautiful Japanese garden. Following the wedding photographs are other family photographs which were taken at celebratory occasions such as starting military service or during the holidays and visits to temples and shrines. One group photograph was taken at Futamigaura near Ise Shrine. <br> <br>A primary school graduation photograph was taken to mark the graduation at Kane Ordinary Primary School 河根尋常小学校 in Ito County in Wakayama Prefecture near Koyasan. The photograph was taken by M. Okada Photographic Studio. It was a small class with a dozen pupils or so with teaching staff. A young woman who is sitting on the first row lower left has a distinctive hair style and it might indicate that the photograph was taken around the beginning of the 20th century. The owner's name Imoto Masako appears on reverse. A loose formal photographic portrait features a young non-commissioned officer of the Japanese Imperial Navy in his uniform and hat. The emblem shows of his military rank. . unknown

From the Preface- "The title of this book comes from a remarkable experience in Mother's life. Shortly after she joined the Church in Sweden persecution began to run Rampant. Her brother introduced her to his friends as a harlot. Sentiment against her was at a high peak and widespread. She stood alone except for one girl friend who consented to sleep with her this night. It was a cold wintry night with several feet of snow on the ground. Suddenly footsteps came rushing up the stairway to her room the door flung open and there stood her brother Erland insane with anger. He pointed a pistol at her and with a demanding voice he said 'Deny your faith this minute or I will send a bullet through your heart.' She calmly replied 'You can take my life but never my faith.'

1940178121940. Photographic archive of fifty-six vernacular images dating circa 1940-1945 documents African American family life during World War II including military service higher education interstate travel and middle-class domestic stability. Taken by and of members of a single family the photographs situate Black civilian and military experience within the broader wartime transformation of American society. One subject appears in U.S. Navy uniform at a moment when more than 160000 African Americans served in the Navy during the war and the first Black officers were commissioned in March 1944 marking a transitional period in the desegregation of military leadership. Additional images record travel to Washington DC including views of the Washington Monument as well as residential streets automobiles and formal portraiture collectively presenting visual evidence of mobility aspiration and civic presence during the era of segregation.<br /> <br /> Archive consists of fifty rectangular silver gelatin prints measuring approximately 4½ x 2¾ inches and six square-format prints measuring approximately 3½ x 3½ inches. Many versos bear "Velox" brand imprint and photograph numbers. Scenes include family members posed in domestic interiors and outside homes; a man in Navy uniform also pictured beside a convertible automobile in formal attire; a young woman in cap and gown holding a diploma; snowy residential streets likely in the eastern United States; a Texas automobile license plate; and Washington DC landmarks including the Washington Monument. One verso inscription reads: "Gladys and Birdie and I spent a weekend in Baltimore Md. We spent a weekend with Gladis and her father. 1943" providing specific geographic and temporal context within the wartime period.<br /> <br /> Created during a decade defined by global conflict and domestic racial inequality the photographs record Black participation in wartime service education leisure travel and automobile culture. The presence of a Navy uniform reflects the expanding but still segregated role of African Americans in the armed forces prior to the 1948 desegregation order while images of higher education and intercity travel document social mobility within constrained legal and housing systems. Minor edge chipping and light age toning visible on some prints; images remain clear with strong contrast. Overall very good condition.

1940226451940. Japanese AmericanWWII Japanese American military service and postwar life photograph archive documenting Nisei participation in the United States armed forces and the reintegration of Japanese American families into public life after World War II 1940s-1960s. The photographs capture Japanese Americans in military uniform as well as family gatherings and civilian travel throughout wartime incarceration and postwar recovery and reintegration. The images document the lives of a generation of Nisei soldiers who served in units such as the 442nd Regimental Combat Team and the Military Intelligence Service whose wartime service occurred while more than 120000 Japanese Americans were forcibly removed and incarcerated under Executive Order 9066. The archive encapsulates the complex relationship between patriotic service and racial discrimination during WWII and the reintegration of Japanese Americans into civilian life during the mid twentieth century.<br /> <br /> Archive of 12 black and white photographs produced between the 1940s and 1960s. The images range in size from approximately 2 x 3 inches to 3.5 x 5 inches and include several photographs of Japanese American men in United States military uniform. Other photographs depict Japanese American families posed together in domestic and social settings including women dressed in fashionable postwar clothing typical of the 1950s. A small group of photographs shows Japanese American visitors standing in front of the United States Capitol building in Washington D.C. Several photographs bear numbers dates or personal names written on the verso in both Japanese and English.<br /> <br /> Japanese American military service during World War II was a central element in the broader struggle for Asian American civil rights after the war. Nisei soldiers serving in the 442nd Regimental Combat Team and the Military Intelligence Service played significant roles in combat operations in Europe and in intelligence translation work in the Pacific theater. At the same time their families and communities endured forced removal and incarceration under federal wartime policy. In the decades following the war Japanese American families rebuilt social networks reestablished businesses and professions and increasingly participated in civic life across the United States. Photographs documenting travel to symbolic national locations such as the United States Capitol reflect this period of renewed public presence and political engagement among Japanese Americans in the 1950s and 1960s. Minor edge wear and handling visible to several photographs with occasional annotations on the versos in Japanese and English; overall very good condition. This archive provides visual documentation of Japanese American wartime service and the reestablishment of civic identity during the postwar era. unknown
