Only one almanac

 

The Photographic Society of Japan has been publishing an

annual report on photography since 1958 for distribution

among members.

Interest Institution, the annual report has now been altered to Japan Photo Almanac both for distribution among members and for the public sales, with the contents for broader interest of the public.

For this purpose, this Almanac pays more attention and allocate more space for The Works by Prize Winners at Almanac Gallery 2012, Photo Exhibitions 2012, Books on Photography 2012, as well as Interviews with People in Topic 2012. This has caused the increase by some 100 pages with the resulting 256 pages.
