Yoji Kuri Manga Collection is a self-published manga book by renowned Japanese animator and illustrator Yoji Kuri, released in 1958. This rare collection showcases Kuri’s signature blend of humor, satire, and surrealism, reflecting the avant-garde style that made him a pioneer in Japanese experimental animation.
The book includes a preface by mangaka Taizo Yokoyama.

As one of Yōji Kuri’s earliest self-published works (second one published), this book is very hard to find, with only a few known copies in circulation.
We also offer the two other rare titles from his collection—CO0.10 Cartoon 4 and COO.8 Cartoon 5—both featuring the only known signed copies.
