Just discovered this collection; amazing! I’m so glad these have been preserved! Were the print colors originally in these pink and purple tones? I dig it!
Yepyep! Nakayoshi and others use the different tones instead of the standard black and white for their periodicals.
Can’t seem to be able to open them when finished downloading :(
