東京モーターショーを本で楽しもう…第1回から第23回まで

Miki Shobo released "Tokyo Motor Show Prince / Nissan Edition" in 2017. Subsequently, "Tokyo Motor Show Toyota Edition" was published as a sister edition. After that, since the 2021 Tokyo Motor Show was canceled, we will introduce these two books as a combined book and put them in a special case.

Actually, these two books are a combination of the ones that the company kept in stock, and only 100 sets. Achieving a lower price by diverting inventory and using one "dedicated case" instead of each cover.

Written by the author who has been a curator for many years at the Toyota Automobile Museum, the photographs and materials recorded are mainly those preserved and stored by the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association, including materials owned by Nissan Motor and Toyota Motor. As a result, the historical material is also enhanced.

This book contains the 1st to 23rd Tokyo Motor Shows, and each time it talks about what kind of car each manufacturer exhibited and what its characteristics are. Not only that, but also the situation at that time was touched on, and many of the photographs were taken locally as well as the public relations photographs of the manufacturer, so just looking at them conveys the atmosphere of that time. ..

In addition, if what was a prototype in the previous year but appeared in production type around the next year, it will be stated where it was changed, so the desire for knowledge in that respect will be satisfied.
