This is the doujinshi "SHŌTEN" by CLAMP. This book is "CLAMP SPECIAL BOOK 16," a special edition of SHOTEN, and is a self-published doujinshi by the official members, issued in July 1990. Unlike their commercial serial works, this book features the high degree of freedom and experimental composition characteristic of the era when CLAMP still strongly retained their doujin circle roots. It includes short manga, parodies, character setting materials, and rough sketches, allowing readers to feel the origins of the style that would lead to their later representative works. All content is by the CLAMP members, and this book vividly reflects the atmosphere and artistry of the time. The number of copies in circulation is now small, and especially early CLAMP-related doujinshi have a steady demand from collectors both domestically and internationally. It is highly valued as a valuable item for research and preservation. 【Condition】 The interior is in relatively good condition, but the front and back covers show signs of wear and tear, such as scratches, minor damage, and light soiling due to aging. There are no critical tears or missing parts. Please check the photos for details.
