Merchandising countdown

Collecting old merchandising is a perennial hobby for fellow humans and I. 

ViewMaster: I have two ViewMasters in my woman cave. Both of which are made in the USA and have paper covered reels which are also compatible with my Italian StereoRama. 

Epoch Family Kamishibai: I saw a bunch of old electronic Kamishibai sets (from the Epoch Family branch) on various second hand chains and auction sites online. A brown example conceived in the late 1960s was shaped like the tv set of its time. Another example, from the late 1970s, is red like my Etch A Sketch. Both have compatible slides. 

Toei’s G-Men franchise

Even though the G Men 75 series remains its best known instalment, the whole G Men franchise actually has roots in the 1960s. It should be acknowledged that Teruo Ishii (the king of Japanese cult classics) was its very prolific late originator. The first two instalments were made in 1962 and are regarded as modestly budgeted back to back productions released only a few months apart. Another unrelated film, better known outside of Japan as A Narcotics Agent’s Ballad, was released a decade later, in 1972. Another tv series, G Men 82, aired in 1982.

The Kyuuta Ishikawa Tsukai Bunko collection

Being a fleeting veteran in a world of mostly single shots, The Kyuuta Ishikawa Tsukai Bunko collection of paperbacks by famed veteran doujinshi circle Apple Box Create is a wonderful (but otherwise unofficial) reprinting marvel in the making.  

Not only is that a semi dormant making process, it will be up to about four or five dozen volumes by the time it will be finished. 

The first three reprint Super Rose volumes are amongst the first ones in the whole collection, while Volume 4 is the final Super Rose reprint volume and the eighth one overall. 

Volume 15 is the first of two Shōnen Buruuba reprint volumes, while Volume 17 remains the second and final one. 

Volume 18 is the first Zamba reprint volume in over fifty years. Two other volumes will come up to be sold within a few years time.
