Sugoroku. Nomura Toy Company - [Yaji Kita Rokkei Ryoko Sugoroku].

n.p. [c1930?]. Colour broadside 55x79cm; with the large original paper wrapper - 40x28cm - with mounted colour illustration. An excellent copy. ¶ The comic adventures along the Tokaido of those buffoons Yaji and Kita of Hizakurige - or Shank's Mare - fame, not so much updated as flung though wormholes in time. All is still Edo in period but for the airplane, those motorcars, cable car, parachutes. This is not a sugoroku produced as a new year gift by a newspaper or magazine - the usual form of these games first half of the 20th century. It was made by Nomura Toys, presumably for sale. Hence the extra large, lurid paper wrapper. Nomura Toys started in the early twenties and went into tin toys in a big way after the war.
