Caption on front [translation]: "Flute. Masao Okamura. The sound of the flute is a mild, cheerful and light one. The sound even has a warm heart. It would be like a rich poem. A violin is a musical instrument which is suitable to be played in the early evening in spring. On the other hand, a flute is a musical instrument which is suitable to listen to while watching falling leaves in Indian summer. Masao Okamura is a popular figure in the Japan Symphony Orchestra, which is conducted by Kosaku Yamada. He, in the photo, is one of the most prominent flautists in Japan."
