UPDATE - Image 55 seemingly didn't make it into the last upload, so its been rectified.

A rare collection of hand drawn cards that were eventually sold at Comiket 14 (May 11, 1980) by the doujin circle NORMAL. I acquired these from my friend M who was given them in the late 1990s by Shio Sato (the novelist Simone Yotsuya). These are the original hand drawn 'cuts' and were done on illustration board with ink and screentone. Each drawing is B5 (6 x 9 inches) and were heavily yellowed due to age. Some pieces state that they were done or at least submitted for editing by the 5th of May.

Artists for this set are as follows:

1 Puppy Silver Gray (パピー・シルバー・グレイ)
2 Hoshi Makito (星真樹樹人)
3 Hara Yuri (原ゆうり)
4 Wave Contraction Cloud (波縮流雲)
5 JET
6 Kirin
7 Sato Shio (佐藤 志生) (Simone Yotsuya)
8 Shishiro (司志郎) (Also known as Shiro)
9 MACK
10 Yutaka
11 Aoi Yumeha (あおい 夢羽)
12 Okuda Mirai (奥田未来)

These have never been documented before as they haven't seen the light of day since the 1990s. Thanks for your support and a big thank you to M for parting with them when I visited him in Hyogo.

Each card was scanned in at 600 DPI and as found. Some borders were simply drawn crooked and were given to me in no particular order. There are two extra cards, possibly stock to choose from, or just filler.
