Abstract:
The Japanese-American Collection comprises of two boxes of black and white prints and four boxes of negatives of Japanese-American families in Los Angeles and Southern California, their social life and customs, in the first half of the twentieth century. Several documents are pictured, including a Japanese map dated circa 1796. ca. 1796 – 1960, no date (bulk is ca. 1900-1940s).
Most of the photographs originate from six families: Akita, Fujioka, Inose, Miyatake, Tani, and Tomio. Many of the images are of Japanese Americans and the Los Angeles area in the early 1900’s including their businesses and farms. There are also many photographs of the Japanese evacuation and relocation camps of World War II. Includes a 1943 high school yearbook from Amache, Colorado.

Scope and Content:
The Japanese-American Collection comprises of two boxes of black and white prints and four boxes of negatives of Japanese-American families of Los Angeles and Southern California, their social life and customs, in the first half of the twentieth century. Several documents are pictured, including a Japanese map dated circa 1796. ca. 1796 – 1960, no date (bulk is ca. 1900-1940s).
Most of the photographs originate from six families: Akita, Fujioka, Inose, Miyatake, Tani, and Tomio. Many of the images are of Japanese Americans and the Los Angeles area in the early 1900’s including their businesses and farms. There are also many photographs of the Japanese evacuation and relocation camps of World War II, in particular those at Manzanar (Calif.), Santa Anita (Calif.), Gila Rivers (Ariz.), and Rohwer (Ark.). Includes a 1943 high school yearbook from Amache, Colorado.
As the collection comprises of copy prints, they appear to have derived from a number of sources. Many of them were re-printed and used by former curator, William Mason, for publication in his The Japanese of Los Angeles (1969). The book provides useful background information for the part of the collection dealing with that subject and also identifies many of the photographs in greater detail.
