(comment) One of the highest peaks of the genre "picture story", Tetsuji Fukushima "Desert Demon King". The rich color scheme that impressed Akita Shoten's monthly manga magazine "Boys and Girls" (later "Boken Ou") for seven years since its launch in 1949 has not faded even now. The thrilling exotic scenery with giant lamp demons, mysterious monsters, and bizarre machines roaming around is just a word. The book contains 9 volumes, serialized from the first issue of April 1949 to the February 1954 issue. full color. The publications after that time have not been made into a book, and in terms of recording conditions, we will give way to the "Complete Reprint Edition" issued in 2012, but the original version will be quite different from the current printing. The peculiar coloration (sometimes misaligned) of the magazine like a print is an atmosphere and real pleasure that can only be experienced in those days.
All 9 volumes, 7th to 9th first edition. There is no conspicuous damaged part other than the 1st back sharpness and scratches. A set in good condition (Kubo)
