シンガーミシン陳列所
Singer Sewing Machine Showroom
A jagged roof ornament and arched windows give the front a neat, refined look. The book describes this sewing machine shop as built in "a gentle Secession style."
About this photo
Ornaments like the teeth of a saw line the edge of the roof. Below them are two tiers of tall windows, and the upper ones have rounded, arched tops. A band of black signage runs across the projecting front, and on the ground floor are a large, whitish display window and an entrance.
The name under the photo is "シンガーミシン陳列所" (Singer Sewing Machine Showroom), while the table of contents calls it "シンガーミシン店" (Singer Sewing Machine Shop). The critic calls it "a gentle Secession style" and approves of the building as well proportioned, with nothing amiss in its design.
