List of Books and booklets Worth Preserving
残しておきたい本のリスト
ここに紹介するのは、UTAブック以外の出版物で、僕（桐生敏明）が出版に関わった本の中から、残しておきたい出版物を選び出したものです。
選び出す基準は、「僕自身が、制作に深くかかわったモノ」「日本の今を伝えてくれると思われるモノ」「日本の歴史や文化を伝えてくれるモノ」「制作の過程で、僕個人の反省に深く関わってきたモノ」のいずれかで、なおかつ「データが完全に近い状態で残っていたモノ」です。
著者の了解がいただけたものについては、PDFファイルを、未来の読者に向けて Internet Archive に残すよう順次作業を進めていきます。
List of Books Worth Preserving
The publications introduced here are books outside the UTA Book series that I, Toshiaki Kiryu, was involved in producing, and which I believe are worth preserving for the future.
The criteria for selecting these books are as follows: works in which I was deeply involved during the production process; works that convey something about Japan today; works that reflect Japanese history and culture; or works that became deeply connected to my own personal reflections during their creation.
In addition, only materials whose original production data has remained in an almost complete form have been selected.
右端の「PDF」の文字をクリックしていただければ、Internet Archiveで本文を読んでいただくことができます。
By clicking the "PDF" link on the far right, you can read the full text through the Internet Archive viewer.
※なお、縦書き・右綴じの本につきましては、ビュアーが欧文用ですので、見開きでなく、縦にスクロールする形でお読みいただけます。
Please note: For books originally printed in vertical Japanese format and bound on the right, the viewer is optimized for Western-language books. Therefore, instead of displaying two-page spreads, the pages are best read by scrolling vertically.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 幼年盆踊歌・少女盆踊歌 Educational Bon Dance Record for Children | This video presents both sides (A and B) of a prewar Japanese educational SP record, produced around 1935 for children’s Bon dance practice. | MP4 | 1935 | VIEW |
| 幼年盆踊歌 Children's Bon Dance Song (Prewar Japan, ca. 1935 | This video presents a restored recording of a children’s Bon dance song from prewar Japan, originally produced around 1935 as an educational SP record. | MP4 | 1935 | VIEW |
| 少女盆踊歌 Girls’ Bon Dance Song (Prewar Japan, ca. 1935) | This video presents a restored recording of a girls’ Bon dance song from prewar Japan, originally produced around 1935 as part of an educational SP record. | MP4 | 1935 | VIEW | 君が代 陸軍分列行進 Kimigayo (Japanese national anthem) and Army Parade | This record appears to be from the very early days of record production in Japan, and even as an amateur, I suspect it's an important historical recording. | MP4 | 1903 | VIEW |
| 軍隊喇叭（日課諸号令／君が代／国の鎮め） Military bugle call | This record was played by buglers from the Army Toyama School. In military life, bugles are an integral part of everything from sleeping and waking up to eating meals. | MP4 | 1940 | VIEW |
| 少国民愛国歌／みくにの子供 Patriotic Songs for Children (Wartime Japan) – “Shōkokumin Aikokuka” & “Mikuni no Kodomo” | It is our sincere hope that a time when children are made to sing such songs will never return. This recording is preserved as an important historical artifact, offering insight into the cultural and social conditions of wartime Japan. | MP4 | 1938 | VIEW |
| テイチク児童レコード 13 戦時下の童謡 Teichiku Children's Records 13: Wartime Nursery Rhymes | While the song itself doesn't have much of a wartime feel, the lyrics of "The Village's Raggedy Horse-Drawn Carriage" include expressions that evoke wartime, such as "Children playing soldiers line up on the hill again today to take their leave," and the word "ragged horse-drawn carriage," which refers to a crude passenger carriage, gives it a sense of the era. | MP4 | 1933 | VIEW |
| 新ヒノマル児童レコード 16 「僕の重爆機」ほか New Hinomaru Children's Records 16: "My Heavy Bomber" and others | The album contains six songs: "My Heavy Bomber," "Strong Japanese Soldiers," "Air Combat," "Playing Soldiers," "I Want to Ride in a Tank Too," and "Puppy Shanko Shanko." However, with the exception of "Puppy Shanko Shanko," all of them have content that you wouldn't want your child to sing. | MP4 | 1935 | VIEW | レコード「吉原の一夜」素見（ひやかし）の巻 Nonsense: A Night in Yoshiwara | This recording features “Nonsense: A Night in Yoshiwara – Soken (Hiyakashii)” by Mikimatsu Yanagiya, a popular entertainer of prewar Japan known for his comic storytelling, vocal imitation, and musical narration. | MP4 | 1930 | VIEW |
| 童謡ミッキーマウス On the Reception of Mickey Mouse in Prewar Japan | From the label, we can see that this record was recorded by the Kyoto studio of Shochiku Records as a promotional release. Since Shochiku Records existed from 1932 to 1939, this record must have been produced sometime within that period. By 1936, as seen in the aforementioned animation, Mickey Mouse had already been reinterpreted as a villainous figure. However, in this record, Mickey is portrayed as “cute” and “innocent.” | MP4 | 1936 | VIEW | レコード 「白浜湯崎温泉めぐり」 Shirahama Yuzaki Onsen Tour – A Journey Through Japan’s Coastal Hot Springs | A tour bus guide from around 1930. The tour takes you around Shirahama and Yuzaki Onsen. The music is accompanied by the Teichiku Orchestra. The guides are Meiko Bus conductors Kimiko Sugimoto and Takako Morimoto. The insert song, "Shin Shirahama Kouta," is sung by Shizuko Ikuno. | MP4 | 1930 | VIEW | 通（かよい）鯨唄 Kayoi Whale Song | The Whale Museum is located in Kayoi, Nagato City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. Director Hayakawa of the museum sang the "Kayoi Whale Song" for us. It is a celebratory song that is always sung at the whale festival and is designated as an intangible cultural property of Nagato City. While singing, people are required to rub their hands together rather than clap. This is said to be a way of paying tribute to the whales that sacrificed their lives, as well as to the calves and fetuses that lost their lives along with them. | MP4 | 2015 | VIEW |
