(comment) This is a colored paper drawn after the second rakuro boom. It is not well known that the famous "growing tadpole" seal had turned into a frog in 1959, on his 60th birthday. The 1967 publication of "Norakuro Manga Complete Works" brought about a re-evaluation, rejuvenating the frog from adulthood to a tadpole with a tail, and once again boosted Norakuro into a national character. Norakuro is painted with ink and brush, and his gentle smile is filled with a long time and feelings of blisters (Yamatani).
