Comments:
The municipality of Onomichi asked art students to make designed caps. In this cover located on the Shiomachi shopping street, a typical shopping street is depicted as seen from above. Apparently the street is in the city of Setoda, a city that was united with Onomichi. The caps were donated to the municipality by Andex Co., Ltd., a company specializing in printing and dyeing equipment.

Photographer’s note: On the Onomichi cycle trail in Japan. Each village or suburb was proud of its own draincover design

Translation of the text on the sign:
うすい - thin (it seems that on lids, referring to the lid designed for rainwater)
おのみち - Onomichi
しおまち商店街 - Shiomachi Shopping Street
