Though he isn't considered elegant, comedian-musician Joji Tokoro has a distinctive sense of style that goes beyond his huge collection of eyewear and short-cropped blonde hair.
Tokoro, it turns out, is an avid collector of "antique clothing." This week, on the long-running antique-appraisal variety show, "Kaiun! Nan'demo Kanteidan (Good Fortune! The Anything Appraisal Team)" (TV Tokyo, Tuesday, 8:54 p.m.), Tokoro will bring to the studio 52 items from his collection, including vintage Hawaiian shirts and leather jackets, for inspection and to have their value judged by the show's panel of antique experts.
Also on this week's show is a person who owns what he claims to be a previously unknown lithograph by a world-famous artist whose identity won't be revealed until the show airs.
