Description
This beautiful full-bleed image is a poster issued by Japan's national railway during the early to mid 1930s. These posters were created for domestic use only to promote travel within Japan to various national parks, hot spring resorts and other notable destinations. This example extols the beauty of the Yamanashi Prefecture. The prefecture is landlocked, and features a fertile central valley, the Kofu Basin, surrounded by many of the highest mountains in Japan including the highest, Mount Fuji, located on the southern border with Shizuoka and beautifully pictured on this poster.
