"Tokyo 1961 (New Booklet Edition)" is a collection of works by William Klein, one of the most representative photographers of the 20th century. It is a collection of photos of the city series that Klein released in succession from the 1950s to the 1960s. It started with "New York", then "Rome", and the third book is "Tokyo". New York is the area where Klein lives. At the time, 1/3 of the population of New York was Italian, and Klein himself spoke Italian, so he was able to take photos in Rome without any worries, but "Tokyo" was the first unknown land for Klein. He did not understand the language being spoken or the meaning of the written words, and it was a new situation for him, so he photographed "Tokyo" relying only on "intuition". It is a collection of works that expose Klein's sensibility, captured in an environment where "everything is worth seeing, but nothing can be interpreted". This is a 24-page booklet version published when the reprint was published by Akio Nagasawa in 2014, and includes illustrations that are only included in this book.
