ADVERTISING MUSEUM TOKYO

Very unique! Japan’s first ad museum.

This is a free admission complex consisting of ad library, display hall, and AV hall, located on the B1 and B2 floors (about 1,200 m2 floor area in total).
The ad library is Japan’s only library specialized in marketing and advertising, and currently houses more than 17,000 publications. In addition to referring to the publications, visitors can also access a database of about 150,000 digitized ad-related materials and works from the Edo to modern periods. The library can also be used for leisure purposes, such as viewing old TV commercials visitors saw in their childhoods.
The display hall shows products symbolizing each period, as well as collages of newspapers, magazines, and photos of those times, along with the ad history of the past 100 years to express the relations between ads and social, economic, and cultural circumstances in an easy-to-understand manner.
