SASUKE Book-n-Record

posted in: 2 - Books and Manga | 0

This kid’s book-and-record (flexi-disc that is) Sarutobi Sasuke: Ninja Shugyou (Ninja Training?) is from 1973, and I know little more than that. The art throughout its 10 cardboard pages is no great shakes – and is actually quite stiff at times – but there is one killer ninja combat spread, and a great back cover. Are they trying to portray Raizo Ichikawa there?

Man I love this detail!

See how much fun it is to kill ninja, kids. Try this at home!
