Just an FYI. Jamie from Graham Crackers has a camp book on his wall at WonderCon. Shadow Comics, volume 4 number 7.

 

I know it's back in the thread somewhere, but I can't seem to find it. What is considered the end of the camp period? Had she been released before the end of 1944?

based on Mikes Amazing website Shadow 4/7 was on the stands August '44

 

so yes it would fall in the camp list.

 

Also looking at the book it has the purchase date noted and the comic code she used, No "Okajima" -script, but she had started not using that consistently by August/September

ok and for posterity since the book has never been on any other lists, and this might be the only scan around of it. (I've cropped out the case/label because it's not CGC)

 

 

Smart pick-up! I assume you got that from Jamie Graham? He had it at WonderCon and I thought about it. I actually have a slightly better copy but wanted it for the pedigree. Couldn't justify it at the time but kind of wished I got it. Glad to found a new home with a boardie!

Its still with Jamie as far as I know, it was on his site so I pulled a scan, but thanks to Straw for posting his better and bigger one!

 

I dont think this book is on the master list in the Pedigree book, but I'll have to double check.

Here's another:

 

http://www.comicconnect.com/bookDetail.php?id=593865

 

Full disclosure -- my book! Who knew?

 

 

Yesterday I sent an email to Vinnie about it being the Okajima Copy. He added it to the item description. Looks like a beauty!

 

Pretty copy. Maybe a slab correction is in order for the purchaser.

I love the Okajjma Pedigree

 

My Uncle was interned in a camp during WWII.

 

I've never spoken about it with him. I'm not sure my two cousins have much either. It messed him up a bit back in the 70's but he's doing great now.

 

He has written a few books but not on the camps.

 

Google him. Bob Kono

 

I didn't realize it but he's posted videos on YouTube I'm going to watch now.....

 

Called life in the camps :o

 

 

Wow. Made me cry. He's so poised and clear headed about it all.

 

And for those that know me, no, I'm not Japanese but my Uncle is :cloud9: and my cousin's are 1/2. And wouldn't you know my luck they are both taller than me.
