Caption on reverse [translation]: "Boxer Kaneo Nakamura returns home. Featherweight titan. Boxer Kaneo Nakamura, who is affiliated with the Japan Boxing Club, returned to Tokyo on the 6th. This boxer went to America with Kawada Takahashi and other boxers on the Japan Boxing Club's first trip to the U.S. He fought in the U.S. and returned to Japan once. He went to the U.S. a second time and stayed two years. During his stay he used the name Kato Nakamura and became popular as a titan of the featherweight division. Out of 45 games, he had 30 wins by knockout, 10 wins by judge, 1 draw, and 4 defeats. This is a good score. His return to Japan makes an exciting addition to Japan's featherweight division, and this coming 20th he will make his appearance in the Japanese boxing world."
