Despite its modern veneer, a fair amount of Tokyo is still surprisingly old and dated, an aspect that for me at least makes the city infinitely more interesting. Scenes and environments that almost seem to exist in a different era — some still a part of everyday life, whereas others are long unused and left to decay. All of them, however, make for fascinating finds in the capital’s current, and increasingly homogenous, urban sprawl.

Was one of those sweet trays yours? Whose ever they were they had different funds available. Lovely to see the odl guy again working with his abacus. Precious glimpse of another time.
Has that guy made any progress with that mini do you think since to photographed him undeneath it last year.
Lee says
Haha, yes, they were my purchases.
The mini was finished last year, then recently it returned. Something the owner wasn’t happy with. Quite the saga.
Richard says
The abacus, the car, Coltrane….these all go back A LONG way!!
Lee says
Yeah, they really do.
