Showa 56 (1981) Theatrical World June Special Issue: "The Charm of Onnagata" This issue is packed with articles and photos related to onnagata (female impersonators) in Kabuki. Of particular interest are the photos of the young Tamasaburo in "Sakurahime Azuma Bunsho" (photo 8) and the makeup and dressing procedure photos of the late Kanzaburo in his Kankuro days (photo 10). You can also see the younger days of actors who are now veterans, including Kikugoro. Furthermore, in an article discussing onnagata from the perspective of tachiyaku (male roles), the current Nizaemon (then Takao) also talks about onnagata (photo 11). Please refer to the table of contents for other content (photos 12, 13). There is some yellowing of the paper and wear on the edges due to age, but it is in relatively good condition. There is a crease at the bottom of the spine of the cover (photo 6). The white part of the back cover appears slightly darkened (photo 2).
