Katsuichi Kabashima
樺島勝一
Katsuichi Kabashima was a pioneering Japanese illustrator, painter and Mangaka. He created the children's tale about a boy, a princess and a squirrel, called 'The Adventures of Shou-Chan' with writer Oda Nobutsune for Asahigraph from 1923. Shou-Chan and his friends visited strange countries and worlds and encountered the weirdest fantasy creatures, making this poetic series the Japanese equivalent of 'Little Nemo in Slumberland'. The strip ended in 1925 when the artist left the Asahi staff. Katsuichi was mainly a woodblock illustrator for magazines and newspapers, especially illustrations for novels, such as stories by Unno for Shounen Club, and books by the Kodansha publishing house.
