Using his signature black-and-white linear style, artist Al Hirschfeld distilled one of the most memorable moments of the twentieth century into a masterful work of portraiture. Renowned for transforming a few elegant lines into instantly recognizable personalities, Hirschfeld captured Marilyn Monroe during her iconic performance of “Happy Birthday” to John F. Kennedy, balancing glamour, celebrity, and political theater with remarkable economy. The drawing exemplifies Hirschfeld’s innovative visual language—where fluid line, gesture, and expression convey not only likeness, but the cultural significance of a moment that continues to resonate in American history.

This anthology was published to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the original 1990 anime, bringing together several veteran and newer fan artists — many of whom had contributed to early ‘90s Teyandee doujin circles. The cover and closing illustrations feature Otama, tying into the “Reunion” theme that reflects how fans and artists were reconnecting after a decade.

💡 Fun facts:

• This was sold at Comic Market 58 (Summer 2000).

• Contributors included both major names from the 1990s KNT doujin scene (ASTRA,豊島U作, こごまひ, 沖由佳雄) and a few new ones.

• The cover’s retro color scheme and Otama holding a “Otama Pad” (a parody of the Palm Pilot) give it that perfect Y2K charm.

⚠Note:

This is an adult-oriented doujinshi, created for mature audiences. Like many late-’90s and early-2000s Kyattou Ninden Teyandee fanworks, it includes explicit material and parody themes not suitable for minors.

💬Afterword Translation – by Yukao Oki (沖 由佳雄)

“This time, it ended up being a book without much order or theme — sorry about that!

I know some people were expecting more volume, but that was a mistake in planning on my part.

Mr. Tenko Suzuki even contributed an illustration, and yet… we still ended up including some naughty material — sorry about that, too. But we’re passionate about expressing affection, and that’s what this was about. It’s been ten years, and I wanted to draw that love again.

Of course, some things still feel unfinished — maybe we’ll try again next time, with a smaller group of contributors and a more focused approach. Anyone interested, step forward!

It’d be nice if someday, we could all do something together again.

Thank you to all the readers and contributors for your support.”

Great original art by noted artist Arthur E Sudler

Arthur Emory Sudler Jr. (1905–1968) was an American commercial artist and advertising executive best known as co-founder of the agency Sudler & Hennessey, which became a pioneer in medical advertising. Born in Baltimore, he studied at Baltimore City College and the Maryland Institute, later working as art director for E.R. Squibb & Sons before establishing his own firm in 1936. Sudler’s approach combined dramatic visuals with clear, human translations of complex medical information, shaping pharmaceutical and consumer advertising in the mid-20th century. He was also recognized for nurturing creative talent within his agency, which became one of the leading firms in its field. Sudler retired in 1966 and passed away two years later, leaving a lasting legacy in both art and advertising.
