Valuable, Collectable Japanese Photobook, Gangs of Kabukicho by Watanabe Katsumi

Description: This cult-classic Japanese Photobook is long out of print and difficult to find. Watanabe Katsumi was an itinerant portrait photographer working primarily in Shinjuku in Tokyo. Gangs of Kabukicho reproduces 155 photographs taken in the ’60s and ’70s in the blue-light district of Shinjuku called Kabukicho. The title of the book reflects the title of his first book published in 1973 called simply, The Gangs of Shinjuku. Iizawa Kōtarō writes about the life of Watanabe who died in 2006. Text is printed in English and Japanese. Other than a slight fold at the corner of the cover (as visible in the pictures), this book is in mint condition.
