10 June 1959 Afterburner

A nice selection today of AFPS and local graphics from the 10 June 1959 Afterburner. Enjoy!

Simple, engaging, and to the point -- score one for AFPS.
This art, and the following two images, accompanied a feature article about a tourist place called "UNESCO Village" located fairly close to Yokota (about 30 minutes in 1959) at a Seibu Line station named Sayamako. According to the article in the newspaper it consisted of architecture and attractions from around the world, perhaps a bit like Epcot. I'm pretty sure that UNESCO Village doesn't exist anymore, and it probably wouldn't be necessary since world travel is now so simple. The artist for these pieces is unknown.



A new banner for this regular photo feature.
This little banner was for a local column on cooking cheap and easy meals. Believe me, the recipes look truly horrible.
Art with accompanying article from AFPS.
Another Yokota bio-comic from the sports page. Fantastic stuff!
