Blast from the past: Article in Asahi Graph from March 15, 1959 titled 夫は空手、妻は琉舞 (Husband does karate, wife Ryūkyūan dance). The photos were taken in the dōjō of Nakazato Shūgurō 仲里 周五郎 (1920–2016). The rest of the text is unfortunately difficult to read but referring to the fact that Nakazato sensei practiced karate, his wife the dance. A great post-war glimpse of the late 1950s in Okinawa.
