Summary

Description
English: Inaugural issue of The Japan Times, March 22, 1897 Created from the 100th anniversary replica of The Japan Times. The actual item does not remain in The Japan Times. Microfish are located at The Japan Times and News Park (Japan Newspaper Museum).

JT first issue page 1: Partly 5 sen, 1 month subscription was 1 yen (1 yen), 1 year subscription fee was pick up yen (10 yen). 6 pages. The center of the title is a picture of Mt. Fuji. Following the British Times at the time, newspapers began with advertising. This first page is also filled with advertisements from various companies.

Reflecting the times, the advertisements of the metal company Osaka Crucible Manufacturing Company (which was merged with the Osaka Crucible Manufacturing Company, now Japan Crucible Co., Ltd.) and Hokkaido Coal Mine Railway Co., Ltd. are at the top. There are also advertisements for typewriters (upper left), Swiss clocks (upper right), cigarettes (lower center), pianos (lower right), and champagne.
日本語: ジャパンタイムズ創刊号紙面　明治30年３月22日（1897年）全６ページ。

Inaugural issue of The Japan Times, March 22, 1897 　ジャパンタイムズ創刊100周年レプリカより作成。現物はジャパンタイムズにも残っていません。マイクロフィッシュがジャパンタイムズとニュースパーク(日本新聞博物館)にあります。JT創刊号第１面： 一部5銭、1ヶ月購読で壱円（１円）、１年間の購読料は拾円(10円)でした。 ６ページ建て。 題字中央は富士山の絵です。 当時の英国タイムズ紙にならい、新聞はまず広告から始まりました。この第１面も、いろいろな会社の広告で埋まっています。

時代を反映し、金属会社のOsaka Crucible Manufacturing Company (大阪坩堝製造会社、現日本ルツボ株式会社に吸収合併か)、北海道炭鉱鉄道株式会社の広告がトップにあります。タイプライター（左上）、スイス時計（右上）、たばこ（中央下）、ピアノ（右下）、シャンペインの広告もあり、読んでいくとタイムスリップしたようでなかなか面白いです。
