In the spring of 1963, Kurosu started a column in Men’s Club called “Ivy Leaguers on the Street” (Machi no Aibii Riigaazu), where he and a photographer took snaps of young passers-by in Ginza who dressed similar to East Coast preps. Kurosu picked the best images and wrote accompanying captions. Nicknamed Machi-ai, the photo page soon became readers’ favorite part of the magazine.
