While perusing the original Japanese version of Godzilla (1954), I saw something that I never noticed before.
During Godzilla's rampage in Tokyo, the Wako Department Store in Ginza is demolished by the beast after the clock on the building gongs the hour (above picture). A scant minute or so later, there is a shot of the burning Tokyo skyline with Godzilla in the background (in the form of a puppet). In this scene, Ginza is clearly shown including what appears to be the Wako Department Store with its clock tower INTACT. The Morinaga globe sign was about a block away from the Wako Department Store and is shown near what appears to be the Wako Clock Tower.
Could this be a little continuity error?

| Above, could this (see arrow) be the Wako Department Store clock tower in Ginza in a scene AFTER Godzilla already destroyed it? |
