一平全集 第15巻

岡本一平 著 · 1930 · 先進社 · 468 pictures

A 1930 Japanese collected works volume of cartoons and humorous picture sketches by Okamoto Ippei, published by Senshinsha in Tokyo and aimed at general readers. The pages show loose, comic line drawings of figures in kimono and everyday scenes, with a few panels of Japanese text and numbered or lettered captions; a designer could take their economical contour lines, exaggerated poses, and gently satirical humour as a model for quick informal illustration.
