16mm HOME MOVIE SHOT DURING OCCUPATION OF JAPAN ZUSHI, KANAGAWA PROVINCE KAMAKURA 24134

This silent, 16mm home movie was shot by American serviceman in Japan during the era of the Occupation (1945-1952). It shows footage of what we believe to be the town of Zushi, which has now grown to be a city-sized beach resort. Zushi is located in the Kanagawa prefecture, straight across the peninsula from Yokohama and Yokosuka and across the bay from Mount Fuji. The film ends with some New Year shots of Kamakura and the Japanese young women dressed for the Coming-of-Age Day. 0:06 – 0:24 People, possibly women-divers carrying their shellfish and sea sponges catch in baskets.
