Shocked/troubled/outraged by "Sambo" dolls? - - - No puroburemu - this is "Bibimba!"
Your Lovely Nango news team (Mark, Yumi, and Makoto) visited the "World Glass Hall", just up the road from Lovely Nango, today

Here are the shelves of "Chibi-kuro Sanbo" ("Little BlackSambos") -er- "Bibimbas", paddling canoes, riding wild animals, and generally reveling in their identity as "do-jin"
("jungle bunnies").
To paraphrase the old Japanese proverb, "Sometimes, even
Bibimbas fall out of trees," but dem coconuts jes' look so tasty...
Please verify the nappy hair, caricatured eyes and lips, loincloths,
and spears (for chucking) for yourself - this is no Elwell fantasy.
The serried ranks of savage
"Bibimbas", with what appear to be
petite "picakninnies" on the right.
Just in case you were thinking this was a "tropical paradise",
rather than "racial", thing, we have "Bibimba" the jazz saxophonist...
Different day, different venue, same society.
"Achtung! You VILL brush your teeth - or else!"

seen on 5 July 2000.
