Description

Page from one of the all time great mangaka, Yoshihiro Tatsumi who is credited with creating the term gekiga which translates to "dramatic pictures," of which he was one of the early leading voices.

This piece is from the Yoshihiro Tatsumi Dynamite Magazine #2, from a story titled "Go Back to the Cage," which was a publication made for the Japan rental market. Cards on the table, I have not read this story in full only the pages that were offered up for sale, and bought pages from this book solely based on my love of Yoshihiro Tatsumi and how rare it is to find original manga pages available to the public. I am still trying to track down an affordable copy of the book.

Purchased this on eBay from editor and manga researcher, Mitsuhiro Asakawa, who US based readers may know from the many essays written for English gekiga manga reprints, right as pages were first put up, so luckily I was able to get every page I was interested in. This page features a three legged dog, who from what I can gather is used as a metaphor, that will be called back later in the comic and the protagonist of the story who has guitar in hand. The panel with the protagonist really has a feeling, to my eyes at least, Tatsumi's later work.

The blue color on the page shows up as a light shade in the printed version.

If anyone has further information or corrections please let me know as I would be very appreciative of any insight.

Pencil, Ink on paper.

Roughly 8" x 11" original size but paper has been cut up to film as many pages as possible.
