The ''Little Lulu Library'' was an 18 volume deluxe hardcover series of books reprinting a long run of ''Little Lulu'' comics from the period when John Stanley was writing the stories. Most of the stories collected were drawn by either Stanley or Irving Tripp. At the time they were published, they were the only Little Lulu comics that were in print in the English language. The series published by Another Rainbow Publishing between 1985 and 1992. The six three-volume boxed sets (18 volumes) of the ''Library'' reprinted the ''Little Lulu Four Color'' comics #374-387 as well as issues 1-87 of ''Little Lulu'' comics. Besides reprinting the Little Lulu stories, each set contains background articles on the artists, essays, and previously unpublished art. ==Reproduction== The eighteen 9" x 12" hardcover volumes are housed in 6 slipcases. The stories are reproduced larger than comic size and most are printed in black and whitewhile the front covers to the original comics are in full color. They are very similar in construction to the 30 volume/10 set collection of the Carl Barks Library, also published by ''Another Rainbow''.〔 They reprinted ''Little Lulu Four Color'' #374-387 as well as issues 1-87 of the ''Little Lulu'' series. Each set also contains background articles on the artists, essays, and previously unpublished art.〔 The artwork of most of the Stanley-drawn stories in the books, however, was "crudely trace()as photostats for them did not exist."〔 The contents of the books were later scanned and republished (minus background material) as the first 18 volumes of Dark Horse Comics' ''Little Lulu'' reprint series,〔 which then continued on in full colour, reprinting ''Little Lulu'' comics that ''Another Rainbow'' had not managed to get to. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Little Lulu Library」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
