Description:
Beautiful first edition of Tokyo Candy Box by celebrated Japanese photographer Koji Onaka (尾仲浩二), published in 2001 by Wise Publishing.

This vibrant photobook captures the fleeting atmosphere of Tokyo’s urban landscapes between 1999–2001, blending nostalgia and color in Onaka’s signature poetic documentary style.

The book presents a vivid sequence of cityscapes and everyday scenes—crosswalks, shop fronts, neon signs, and rooftops—seen through Onaka’s warm and cinematic perspective.

Printed in full color on high-quality paper, this hardcover edition exemplifies the late 1990s transition of Japanese photography from monochrome intimacy to colorful urban storytelling.
