JAPANESE VILLAGE OF THE 60S BY R.L.HUFFSTUTTER

My impressions of Japan are many. Strangely enough, the older I become, the more pristine and clear some of those long ago images of 50 years ago become. I have a wealth of memories and impressions that are all golden and revered.

It is how I remember one of the towns between Yamato and Tokyo.

The train stations were always the main area of these little towns, now perhaps called suburbs or "burbs."

I remember seeing so many signs that I could not read, but the ones in English were the ones that stood out for a young American. Sony, Sony, Sony signs everywhere and so many radios and electronics gadgets even then
