As both a thank you to MM for all his contributions, and on the date of this man's debut, I hope you all get a kick out of this early Kendo Nagasaki promotional flyer. I believe this is from the around the timeframe of his debut, possibly even before it. It's double-sided in magenta (still bold even after a few decades of fading) print.
The "Japanese" writing, is not actually Japanese, as far as I can tell, but it does appear to be the same, every time it is written. I wonder if it actually means anything?
