The pages are US legal letter size, I'd say. A bit larger than European DIN A4 - and there are 200 of them in all. Truly value for money. There are also various other colour pages, not just of Hagio's artwork. You might want to buy two copies, if you decide to cut the full-page colour reproductions out of one of them and frame them ^^.

I ought to have added that it's dedicated only to SHOUJO manga, which for that time frame - 2005 - was pretty unusual. Grab it, while they still have copies, Melinda, you won’t rue it.

I imported it to Germany and it's well worth the price, because the whole issue is dedicated to manga. Actually the beautifully produced cover with silver letters is worth the price alone. <a href="http://www.fantagraphics.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&product_id=348&category_id=196&manufacturer_id=0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=62" rel="nofollow">The Comics Journal #269</a> Can I just point out that you can still order for a reasonable sum the Comics Journal issue which has that interview AND loads of beautiful colour artwork by Moto Hagio, as well as a full short story of hers.
