Photographer Cho Hyonchi's photo book "Tokyo (With Lid)" published by Bijutsu Shuppan in 1966. There is no publication history in various camera magazines. However, as introduced in "The Japanese Photobook 1912–1990" (2017) compiled by Ryuichi Kaneko and others, it is a wonderful collection of works. The contents are snapshots taken in Tokyo, but the intense close-ups and monochrome high contrast are impressive. There is also an impact that reminds us of William Klein and Elsken, and the rich gravure printing also enhances the appeal of the work. In a sense, it is a work of this era, but there are not many works that make such a strong impression just by snapping. It is a book that can be said to be an unknown masterpiece. Bijutsu Shuppan published Kikuji Kawada's masterpiece Map in 1965, and Yasuhiro Ishimoto's Chicago, Chicago in 1969. We publish a collection of valuable photographs. With case lid. (*According to the materials of the Tokyo College of Photography, there is a description of "1966 Sasaki Norinori Tokyo Publishing" as an OB activity)
