Street Scene in Yokohama (2)

Shows the native quarter of Yokohama, the camera being stationed directly opposite one of the native clothing stores or shops. These are low, pagoda-like structures, with curious tiling, and lanterns hanging in front. A typical group of jap men, women and toddling children are gathered on the roadside, watching the native band, which at that moment passes by.

The Phonoscope, 07/1898.
