Nippu Jiji Photograph Archive, "Japanese" Collection

Caption on reverse [translation]: "For the upcoming Olympic event, Chuhei Nambu, who holds the world record in the long jump and is hoping to set another for the sprint, opened a store with Takeshi Hisayama, who holds the Japanese record in the steeplechase and worked hard practicing in the Waseda University racing club with Nambu. They opened the store at the Sakura-bashi intersection, at 4 chome, Sorozaki, Kita-ku, Osaka city. The name of the store is a little formal and the added motto is "the shop of beauty and health." They provide everything from exercise equipment to modern-style cloth sundries. Hisayama is the manager and Nambu provides other service. They opened today. The photo shows Nambu in the center, Hisayama on the left."
