Taisho Era
A new publicly accessible website compiles contemporary footage of the deadliest natural disaster in Japanese history into a 64-minute film.
Starbucks aside, you can really get a feel for the Taisho era in this newly reopened landmark.
There was a time when sumo wrestlers and kimono-clad ladies made shipping companies look beautiful.
If we could have a genie grant only one wish, it would likely be for a time machine. Even going back a mere 100 years would be fascinating, but, alas, genies aren’t real. Or, if they are, the world governments are keeping them tightly under wraps.
Fortunately, we don’t need time machines to sneak peeks back in time–all we need are some awesome, full-color posters. And these 17 posters are the next best thing to finding Doc Brown waiting outside with a revving DeLorean!
