The covers aren't much to look at, so let's check some highlights to see what was going on as the rest of the world slipped into war...

 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This blog stands in protest against the USA's horrific attempts to eliminate trans people from society. Trans people have always existed, in every society, but the administration has embraced a moral panic, declared a war against reality, and says that trans people can no longer be allowed to exist. This includes making their healthcare illegal, censoring books and school curriculum from university level down to elementary school, banning trans people from bathrooms, and declaring trans existence to be child abuse.

This blog stands in solidarity with all of the youth who are being terrorized by a fascist president who has declared them to be threats that must be eliminated.

The USA is disappearing random brown people & political enemies off the streets via anonymous unaccountable masked gestapo and shipping them off to concentration camps and notorious foreign prisons, all with no due process. The world witnessed ICE execute a mother and then lie about what we saw. And then again, ICE executed a nurse and lied about what we all saw. Solidarity for all who are in the gaze of this American Nazism terror campaign against its own people.

scans: flyers from Japan

I purchased these flyers from Japan and scans were done by Joey.

I picked up 2 variations of the Mark III Derby flyers.  They appear to be the same photograph on them. This article places the exported Sigma Derby as starting in Las Vegas in 1985. That is the reference used in the English wikipedia article.

1990 The Derby MK-III C-15 [Sigma Derby] - ザ・ダービーMKIII C-15 by シグマ (Sigma)

Another recent purchase, this catalogue is from the 1930s.  Jigsaw came out August 1933, so this catalogue is at the earliest late-1933 and most likely 1934.

scan: Arcadia 85 Illustrated Auction Catalogue 1985-10-05

I purchased a small stack of ephemera from a nearby collector of allwin machines and while many of the documents will be heading over to Detchibe/Joey for scanning, I am keeping this and the next item for my collection and I scanned this on my flatbed.

Arcadia 85 Illustrated Auction Catalogue 1985-10-05

This catalogue has all sorts of interesting historical tidbits (some definitely hearsay, some definitely proven untrue now) amongst the items listings.  Even if they aren't all accurate, it is interesting to see the wisdom of the day written down.  This is a source of the story that J&M wrote "Saxony" on their machines because it sounds less British.

Lots of interesting writeups in the center of the publication as well.
