Frozen time

Very old political posters (right-wing/nationalist or far-right, to be precise) found in Yurakucho area.
Back in the 1980s, these posters were very often seen in Shinjuku and other spots in central Tokyo. Today, it's rare to see this type of posters.
I'm no suppoter of their politics, but find this interesting. Time is frozen here, in the middle of Tokyo city centre.
Feels very odd, as the Japanese mainstream politics now are more extreme than those traditional extreme right in a way or two. Moreover, so many things are completely illogical in the mainstream politics today. Those "good-old" (I'm being cynical) nationalists were at least logical in their own way (although I never supported them).
Democratic elections have resulted in a nightmare.

I added this to the Only in Japan group pool as this is without a doubt only in Japan... I was and am never with them. This is only a photograph.
