Camera magazine "Photo Contest 73-09 / Photo Contest Monthly 73-09" published by Shashin Hyoronsha. The publisher is Shinya Yoshimura. Yoshimura was a legendary photo critic and editor who passed away in 1978 at the young age of 44. He was a high school classmate of Eikoh Hosoe, and in his third year, Yoshimura was the director of the photography club and Hosoe was a member. After that, he went to Waseda University and started writing reviews for camera magazines around the 1960s. The photo review company that he founded himself has published many wonderful photo books, including Daido Moriyama's "Goodbye Photography" and Shomei Tomatsu's "I am a King", which can be said to be world-famous books. As the name suggests, the Photo Contest is a magazine that focuses on open submissions for amateurs, and Kaneo Kuwabara and others also conduct selection and critiques. A series of early 70's works that remind us of the camera daily "album" series. By the way, the cover is modeled by Shoichi Ozawa, photographed by Nobuyoshi Araki, and designed by Katsumi Yutani.
