Description

This is a Japanese-language book or magazine about Japanese culture.


More Showa-era advertising fun, from kids' magazines between 1965 through 1969! This book is a treasure; you'll see ads featuring Tezuka characters, Ultraman, and surprising Western stars such as Adam West (as Batman!), Twiggy, David McCallum (as Illya Kuryakin from "The Man From U.N.C.L.E."), and Jonny Quest! Meet the candy bar called Trombone! There's tons of toys--model kits inspired by the space race, robots, tanks, cars and kaiju--plus ads for snack foods and clothing styles that are part of history. All this and a woman dressed as Captain Scarlet! It's a must for any fan of nostalgic advertising, and a real find for a collector of vintage toys!

Softcover with dust jacket. All text is in Japanese.
