Description A town council (neighborhood) office set up in an air-raid shelter, thought to have been located near the riverbank in Inarimachi. The words “Inarimachi … office” can be seen. A man and a woman are talking. A building that appears to be the Hiroshima Central Broadcasting Station can be seen on left, and a torii gate (perhaps the Ichimura-umihime-daimyojin Shrine), located near the riverbank in Hashimoto-cho, is visible toward the center. Behind the woman is a bicycle.
