A photo collection by Japanese photographer Shigeru Tamura (1909-1987) titled "Signed: Testimony of North Vietnam: The Actual Condition of the Massacre Operation." Born in Sapporo, Shigeru Tamura became interested in photography in his teens and worked as an assistant in a photo studio. In 1928, he moved to Tokyo and enrolled in the Oriental Photography School, where Shoji Ueda and Tadahiko Hayashi also studied. After graduating, he worked on advertising photography, but he studied at the New Architecture and Crafts Institute for a year after being involved with the school's magazine "Architecture," which incorporated the Bauhaus philosophy. At the time, he was apparently friends with Ken Domon, Shihachi Fujimoto, and Ihei Kimura. Tamura also worked on fashion photography, but moved to reportage, and after the war, he worked on social themes as a photojournalist. In 1963, he formed the "Japan Realism Photography Group" and became its chairman. This book was published in 1967 and is composed of images taken at the site of the Vietnam War (North Vietnam). In 1965, the Mainichi Shimbun Company published "Everybody is a Hero - A Photo Report on North Vietnam," which was written from the perspective of the Vietnamese people's struggle for justice, but this book seems to emphasize the "barbarism and cruelty of American imperialism."
