Description from the seller

This is Pola-Shock, a photobook by Japanese photographer Seiichi Nomura, published by Wani Magazine in 1996. It is a softcover book with a nearly horizontal format, and it strongly reflects the color, mood, and visual atmosphere of Japanese gravure culture in the 1990s.

Seiichi Nomura is a Japanese photographer known for his work in weekly magazines, manga magazines, gravure photography, and photobooks of actresses and idols. This book is composed of Polaroid works, giving it a different feeling from ordinary studio photography. The soft colors, slight visual instability, and close sense of distance create an immediate and intimate atmosphere that is especially appealing to collectors of Japanese photography and Polaroid-based works.

The condition is good overall. There is minor age-related wear, but no noticeable major damage. The book can be read without any problem.
