1970 — Sixteen colour prints of Vietnamese children's art circa 1968 through 1970. Prints measure approximately 10.25" by 7.25" with actual picture size of approximately 8.5" by 6.25". All text in Vietnamese. Verso of each print bears print number (1 through 16), plus what appears to be title, artist's name, date, and age of artist. Print one shows a seated Ho Chi Minh surrounded by adoring children. Print five shows children gathering vegetation to assist soldiers in the camouflaging of a large truck-mounted rocket. Print 16 shows a soldier teaching children how to use a rifle. Prints are stored in a well-worn but still attractive colour-illustrated protective cover. Bottom of cover reads "Nha xuat ban my thuat - am nhac." Prints in nice shape with no markings. Includes yellowed business card of a Japan-based Canadian academic. A lovely, fascinating and unique set. Book
