Japanese photographer Yukichi Watanabe's photo book “Alaska Eskimo”. Photographer Yukichi Watanabe is re-evaluating a photo record of a police officer who followed the murder case taken in the 1950s as a photo book “A Criminal Investigation” and “Instrument Diary”. I supported journalist Shigeru Tamura after the war, and worked as a freelancer since the 1950s. Many works have been published in newspapers and magazines, but not many are published as photo collections. This book is one of the few photo collections Watanabe had left in his lifetime and was taken on the stage of “Alaska Eskimo”. Accompanying the Alaska Academic Research Team for the special issue of the first issue of the magazine "Taiyo", he interviewed villages who lived primitive life inland and on the coast. Photographed in the early 1960s, it was finally compiled as a photo book after 17 years. At the time of publication, the life of the villagers had already been modernized, so this is a valuable book that contains an unknown life. (Recorded in The Japanese Photobook 1912–1990)
