There are very few prewar Japanese baseball magazines with Japan Pro Baseball players on the cover. Normally, covers feature Tokyo Big Six University stars, as college baseball was far more popular during that era. Kawakami, Japan's greatest hitter of the 1940s and 50s graces the cover of this magazine. In total, there are eight pages of good quality Japan Pro Baseball photos, along with images of college players and sumo stars. Japanese text.

Size: 172 pages.
