A magnificent, unused set of 14 busy, colourful, congested, active, enthusiastic, breathless … cards of this periodic mass performance event.  What you see here shows the front of the cardboard cover and one card, and these are all captioned in Korean and Chinese.  The cards are not bound or connected together, though lightly attached at the tops so they don’t get separated.  The scan for 20312083B is included, and tells (in Korean and Chinese) that this work commemorating Eternal president Kim Il Sung, a Mass Gymnastic and Art Performance, is in memory of how DPR Korea has strived to end the hard life and become a respectable nation.  It goes on to say that 100,000 performers come from all walks of life — labourers, artists, youngsters, and so on; the romantic nuance portrays elegant dancing and graceful gymnastics with magic joy and beauty.  Moreover, there’s a Guinness World record for this, in August 2007.  We sure would like to see the show.  The cards will have to do.  Grade: 1
