Vintage Japanese industrial expo posters ::: Pink Tentacle
National Defense Science Exposition – Hyogo, 1941 [+]
via pinktentacle.com
Japanese posters from the pre-WWII era – an exhibition to their ambition and intention to become a major player in the world. Though they failed miserably by using the wrong approach (well, it seemed to be right to them at that time), however they eventually succeeded in some other way decades later.
By the way, these are good examples of the "Asianized" Art Deco and Art Nouveau poster design though.
