Description
The accent is now on service in the Taxi world: Japanese taxis, famous for many years as being the nearest thing to bull fighting for jaded people looking for a brush with death, have now decided to stress the service side, perhaps this has something to do with almost unbelievable prices charged by taxis in Tokyo. Mr. Watanabe, an owner-driver in Tokyo has no less than 34 forms of special service to offer his passengers including hair dryer medicine chest with car sickness pills and hang-over remedies, the massager, free cigarettes, sweets and gum, all these are free. In addition he supplies soft drinks at cost price. It really does help to forget the sound of the meter clicking away your precious yen at a fantastic rate.

Photo measures 7.25 x 5 inches.
