A single newspaper from January 1, 1905 (Meiji 38) features photographs of the Emperor, Empress, and their three children, capturing a significant moment in Japan's imperial history. The included booklet, published on January 1, 1923 (Taisho 12), contains a special photographic feature on women before the war, providing a unique perspective on the era's fashion and culture. The other newspapers span from Taisho 10 to 12 (1921-1923) and from Showa 3 to 11 (1928-1936), each chronicling events and daily life of the times.
