Dear Colleagues in Japanese History:
I am specialist in Brazilian history currently completing a
book on non-European immigration to Brazil. One major component of the
book deals with Japanese immigration and I have come across a large number
of newspapers clippings in English from the 1920's and 1930's that seem to
have appeared in an English language newspaper entitled "The Osaka Mainichi
and Tokyo Nichi-Nichi" (a single title).
Does anyone know anything about this and other English language
newspapers in Japan like the "Japan Advertiser" or "Japan Times and Mail".
Were they published daily or weekly? Did they simply reprint stories
from the Japanese papers or were they owned as operated as independant
papers? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Please reply directly to me at jhles@conncoll.edu
Thank you,
Jeffrey Lesser
