An erotic art book by Masakane Yonekura, privately published in a limited edition. Fearing a ban, he used a pseudonym.

The illustrations in this book are widely known as the cover art for Dogra Magra, a novel by Kyusaku Yumeno, which is considered one of Japan’s "Three Great Eccentric Books." Published in 1935, Dogra Magra is a story told as the monologue of a young amnesiac patient locked in a solitary cell of a mental hospital. The novel is infamous for its unsettling nature, with a reputation that claims those who read it in its entirety may lose their sanity.
