[Machine Translation] The Special Effects Department was once part of Toho's Visual Arts Division and supported Toho's special effects films. The author, who joined the department, commonly known as "Tokubi" (special art), in 1972, took a series of photographs documenting the work of the department. This is a collection of Toho mecha photo materials that depict the work of not only the author but also his senior colleagues based on the photographs taken by the author. The photographs of war movies, panic movies, and other non-SF movies that are not often covered in movie magazines, as well as "fakes" produced for TV and commercials, are a must-see!
