Most of the slides were produced between 1947 and 1951 during the US Occupation of Japan after World War II. Included are scenes of postwar reconstruction, urban and village life, military reviews, May Day parades, and portraits of formal and informal aspects of Japanese-Western diplomacy. Pictures of domestic life and scenery in Karuizawa, Yokohama, Kobe, Tokyo, as well as photos of Yoshida Shigeru, Ikeda Hayato, Douglas MacArthur, Syngman Rhee, Lyndon Johnson, and Ural Johnson are also included.
