Full title:Mr. Takejiro Kusayanagi's 14-room home at 3741 W. 27th Street, in the fashionable West Adams district of Los Angeles,
to which he returned from Manzanar on the first day the ban was lifted. Mr. Kusayanagi operated the National Trading Company
dry goods store on Main Street, across from the Los Angeles City Hall, from 1906 to December 7, 1941, the day he was removed
from the city. He was probably first to leave and first to return. Now he is retired and devotes his time to management of
his extensive property holdings, which include several buildings in Bronzeville, formerly Little Tokyo. His wife Matsu is
with him, also his son George. He also has five grown daughters and five grandchildren (all girls). His home occupies half
an acre and includes a formal Japanese garden.<lb/> Photographer: Mace, Charles E.<lb/> Los Angeles, California.
