In the Shōwa period style / 昭和レトロの街 [Art&Design]
青梅駅&駅周辺は昭和の町ということで、市をあげて街全体がレトロ化されています。
At the surrounding of Ōme Station (located in Ōme city) & station, the entire town is filled with a Shōwa period's retrospective atmosphere. It mainly refer to the Shōwa '30s-'40s (1955-1974).

There are some decorative things at the station. For example, display, sign, clock, and so on... |

そして、街中では懐かしさが漂う看板が…。
And I could see good old shop signs in town...

商店街のいたるところで、昔の映画看板があり、見ているだけでも面白い…。今度はじっくりと街並を拝見したいものです。
Since there is an old movies signboard everywhere in the shopping district, I think they can enjoy very much. I couldn't see everything this time, so I hope to go there sometime again.
