Henry Sugimoto, "Documentary, Junk Shop Man Took Away Our Ice Box"
As mentioned in the previous slide, Japanese Americans were forced to get rid of any possessions which they could not carry with them to the camps. This meant that they had to sell their furniture, kitchen appliances, and other simliar larger items. This painting shows how some people really took advantage of the Japanese Americans' situations. This particular man does not pay or offer to pay for the appliance, but takes it from them, as is evident from the title. It is likely the case that Sugimoto and his family faced this same hardship.
