Lost and Found is a project created by the Nikkei National Museum & Cultural Centre with featured posts from our friends aimed to generate a conversation across our community. This conversation, with your help, will let us put names to faces and places. We hope you will join in by leaving comments with information about the posted photographs; who is in them, where or when they were taken, and what you think.
