1936ref. 223771東京. Tokyo.: 横山豊. Yokoyama Yutaka. Showa 11 1936. Colour folding colour sugoroku 54 x 80cm. Insect damage lower right square and on margins now repaired with washi the reverse otherwise good. A colourful sugoroku game dating from 1936 this sheet also served as an advertising campaign for the shops and businesses of the Horinouchi district of Kawasaki City. The game sheet was distributed by a newspaper delivery shop in the community. The area had been known as a red-light district since the Edo period and this association continued until recently when it was famous for its “soaplands” or private prostitution services. The types of businesses appearing on the sheet vary though many are clearly connected with the hospitality and entertainment industries including the rental party-room association a term which in this context appears to refer to brothels. The goal of the game is to reach a café named Kanojo 彼女 “A Special Lady”. The game was distributed through the Tokyo Nichi Nichi and Yomiuri newspapers and takes players on a journey in which each panel represents a Horinouchi business. As a result it offers an extraordinarily vivid record of the small shops and establishments which lined the streets of this lively district in the 1930s. We are introduced to small restaurants and cafés a local bookshop and a shop selling traditional Japanese sweets. There is a saké shop a draper’s store a pharmacy and a hairdressers as well as a petrol station and shops selling radios and gramophones. Each business is represented by a charming illustration and a short phrase advertising its services. A decorative piece of ephemera this is also a valuable record of the social history of urban entertainment and commerce in pre-war Japan. . 横山豊. [Yokoyama, Yutaka]. unknown
