Dezső Bozóky hand-coloured glass diapositive. Photograph taken by Dezső Bozóky. A shady street in the Japanese district of Busan. Jintan (仁丹), a mint sweet, is advertised on the telegraph poles. Founded in 1893 by Morishita Jintan (森下仁丹), the company, Jintan still exists, using the same emblem as in the posters seen in Busan, that of a man in a general’s uniform and a bicorne. The packaging of the company’s
menthol sweets has remained unchanged, but the company has also diversified into the production of vitamins, dietary supplements,
cosmetics, and capsules used in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
