一平全集 第9巻

岡本一平 著 · 1930 · 先進社 · 516 pictures

A 1930 Japanese collected works volume, the ninth in the series, by the cartoonist Okamoto Ippei and published in Tokyo by Senshinsha, containing his comic picture-story pages with Japanese text. The pages show loosely drawn ink-line cartoons of travelers, townspeople and figures in kimono or Western dress, with blocks of vertical handwritten captions. A designer could take the economical brush-like contour lines, the strong black silhouettes and the captioned comic-strip panel layout.
