Kobe- Motomachi Street- vintage postcard c.1912- 18-12-2009 21;08;02

I DID LEARN THAT MACHI MEANT STREET......Now about the moto? I believe it is defined as main. So, this is the Main Street of old Kobe. I notice all of the electrical lines and I am getting inspired about the electrification of Japan. So, it looks like it is time to break out the research books and start in. I am seeking some illustrations and/or photos of the workers installing electric lines. There is another subject that should be equally as interesting--the history of the electric trains in Japan. It is an interesting world, is it not? Would be great to have another 68 years to study and learn...........Editor

A FEW WORDS ABOUT THIS PHOTOGRAPH

about this photo......it is an inspiration, it is an invitation to begin a new adventure that will be seen through the lens and only the lens will tell the whole story in silent details. The window behind the camera is symbolic; it will not become a clear window until one picks up the camera and begins taking photographs. Robert L. Huffstutter
