数あるリトル・ニモの復刻版の最高峰です。連載当時の新聞サイズそのまま、紙質や印刷も良く非常に豪華な本です。巻頭に1枚だけ原画が掲載されていて、新聞掲載のものがほぼ原画どおりのクオリティを持っていたことを示しています。ただし、さすがに100年以上前のマンガですので、色彩については微妙なところもあるかもしれません。興味のある方はWinsor McCay: His Life and Artをご覧ください。新聞掲載のマンガが非常に鮮やかな色合いであるように見えます。。
それはともかく、細密で美しい大判の本書は、いままでにない感動を与えてくれます。現在価格にはプレミアが付いていますが、新版が正規価格で出ていますので、購入するならそちらのほうが良いでしょう。
新版:Little Nemo
なお、かなり高額で、しかも他の本とセットになりますが、日本語版として初期アメリカ新聞コミック傑作選も出版されています。
追伸
入手して分かったのですが、これは第三版のようです。「完全に改定され、9話追加されている」とあります。

- 2011年4月1日に日本でレビュー済みフォーマット: ハードカバーAmazonで購入これは……カイブツ本です。トンでもない大きさ。新聞をばあっと広げたそのまんまの、つまり百年前リアルで「ニモ」を楽しんだ人々とおんなじ感覚で楽しんでもらおうという魂胆で作られた本なんです。印刷も申し分ない。
evergreenから出ているニモのコンプリート本を持っていますが、とてもじゃないがこちらを見る気にはもうなれません。比べちゃうと、あんまりにも違いすぎる。大きさだけじゃなくて美しさが月とスッポンほどに違うのです。え!?同じ漫画!?と目を擦ってしまうほど。
でもこういう特殊サイズの本って増刷は期待できないしもともとの部数もすくないだろうからamazonでは品切れになってますね……。古書で二万三万出すのはもったいないので、それより気になられた方は第二弾の「Little Nemo in Slumberland: Many More Splendid Sundays, Volume 2」がありますので是非チェックを!

5つ星のうち5.0 Jaw-droppingly good!
フォーマット: ハードカバーAmazonで購入I got this book in the mail today, and am completely blown away. It's the most beautiful book I've ever seen. Previously I had seen Nemo in 'The Best of Little Nemo in Slumberland' and in the slim collection published by Dover, but neither of those books do McCay's work justice. This volume, because of the quality of its color, but more importantly because it's gigantic, finally lets us see Slumberland in its full glory. In smaller editions McCay's little talk bubbles can be hard to read, but that is no longer an issue. The book is expensive, but in my opinion well worth it.

5つ星のうち5.0 So Many Splendid Sundays! is a National Treasure!
Amazonで購入Peter Maresca, you deserve to be awarded the highest medal of honor in the field of comic art (and I do mean ART!) for publishing this gorgeous book!
I first fell in love with Little Nemo back in 1980 when I discovered the 1976 paperback collection published by Nostalgia Press. Even given the severe limitations of that slim volume, the charm and genius of McCay shined so brightly that for me it was love at first sight. Since then I've bought just about every bookish incarnation of Little Nemo I could lay my hands on, including the hardback 1972 Nostalgia Press edition, the Dover "Ice Kingdom" book, the 6-volume Fantagraphics set, the Evergreen 1905-1914 collection, Richard Marschall's "Best of" book, and others. I've read and treasured all of these. However, as near and dear as all of these are to my heart, (especially the Nostalgia Press book), I have to say that until I got hold of this Sunday Press full-sized version, I had never REALLY read Little Nemo. As soon as I opened this behemoth up and saw the somewhat rare January 7, 1906 "Star Imps" page full-size and full-color, I knew I was in for an amazing experience. And was I ever right! Winsor McCay AND Woody Gelman are both definitely giving you kudos, Peter!
What can I say? This monstrously-sized book is a sheer delight. The reproduction is crystal clear and in certain lights some of the panels (like those featuring the Star Imps) almost look 3-D. Although I've never seen original Sunday pages for Little Nemo, since buying this book I've downloaded many high-quality scans from eBay and other places, and the pages in this book match perfectly with what I'm seeing.
Previous smaller versions compensated and did the best they could, and we who never saw the original strips didn't really know any better. But now we know- McCay's art BEGS to be seen full-size and in its original subdued color. Whereas before I had to kind of fill-in-the-blanks with my imagination, in this Sunday Press version McCay's art (and writing) reaches right out and grabs me.
Another perceptive reviewer who loved the book commented that "Reading this book is exhausting. I can only read 12 pages at a time." I agree. The ungainly size of the book forces one to either put it on a table and lean over it to read it, or lean it up on the wall and kneel and stand up and read it, or lay it on the floor and contort yourself over it however you please. But I wouldn't advise laying on a $125 book like you would the Sunday funnies. So you have to handle it carefully and somewhat awkwardly and maybe read only a few pages at a sitting (standing?). No problem. This book is like a fine wine- meant to be sipped at. So far I haven't even managed to read 12 pages at a single sitting. I get lost in all the details and words that I can finally see clearly. But even savoring 6 or 7 pages in this format is SO rewarding.
If not for this book I would NEVER have gotten to see Little Nemo in its full, fabulous glory. What a great day we live in, that books like this can be published by lovers of the medium and bought by regular people like us. It's a steal at $125. Thank you, Peter Maresca! Very well done!!

5つ星のうち5.0 Fantastic Book, form a fantastic American artist!
Amazonで購入Like so many others have commented, I too, count myself among the lucky purchasers of this tome when it was first published. Winsor McCay's work is truly mind-blowing, and to add that he was doing this in the early 20th century, with inferior printing, to boot.
My only regret, is that I did not return the book as soon as I received it, for there was damage at the top corner along the spine, acquired through the mail. It is a very (VERY) large book, and I have no doubt it was simply thrown around. Amazon did very little to protect its (our) packages. I was too lazy to return the item at the time, assuming it would be a hassle (which is what most companies count on), but I have since then, learned from my mistakes, and I no longer hesitate to return items I am not satisfied with, and have done so, many times now.

5つ星のうち5.0 Reprinted as it should be.
フォーマット: ハードカバーAmazonで購入These are the best reprints of Little Nemo I have ever seen. The paper is off-white, the colors are bright - there is no need to buy the original sheets from hundred years ago any longer. But don't expect lesser known pages, they have all been reprinted by Remco and Fantagraphics before. We should all thank Peter Maresca for this labour of love. And McCay deserves it: between 1905 and 1910 he invented the grammar of the comic strip. His panels are not crowded with figures as in later years, the lay out is imaginative, and some early pages are really scary and subversive.
By the way, there's more underway: a German collector is preparing a large Dreams of the Rarebit Fiend book for all those people who think that the Checker reprints are a bit too small.

5つ星のうち5.0 The largest book I have ever owned and will never give up
Amazonで購入To finally have a chance to see Windsor McCay's artwork as it was intended is the treat of a lifetime. The reproductions I've seen in the past reduce the size of the art like watching a 70mm film on a regular TV set.
Nothing is being produced like this anymore. McCay's talent is beyond amazing, it would take a normal artist months to produce one page like he was doing every week. The book is exhausting and I can only read a dozen pages at a time. These are exact reproductions of actual newsprint pages from the time so all the printing imperfections are here but that should not dissuade the appreciation of this comic.
If you are a true drawn art aficionado find the money for this. You will not regret it.
