Product description ※Please note that product information is not in full comprehensive meaning because of the machine translation.
The four panel comic "Sazae-san" was serialized in a newspaper from 1946 to 1974. In addition to the paperback edition of 『 Sazae-san 』 (45 volumes in total) that can be read now, there are many "Sazae-san" that are not included in the book, and I understand that Hasegawa Machiko Art Museum holds it with great care. This is the first time to publish a book of these important works. There are three points about "Otakara".
1. First published as a book → Until now, I could read only 40 to 70 years ago.
2. Original pictures → About half of the original pictures remain, and all of them are published for the first time. You can learn about Machiko Hasegawa's beautiful pen style, which was difficult to understand from the printed side of the newspaper.
3. The date of publication in the newspaper → "Sazae-san" which contains many current events. By having the date of publication, you can understand the state of life at that time.
It is a "Otakara" book that can be enjoyed by children and adults alike.
