English Description

SHOWA RETRO FROG COAL MINE | WORK LOG NOTEBOOK Deep underground, the frogs are hard at work again today. Welcome to the Kaeru Coal Mine, a fictional workplace run by a crew of hardworking — and occasionally not-so-hardworking — frogs. On the front cover, frog miners wearing headlamps are busy digging for coal and pushing mine carts through the tunnels. Soot-covered work clothes, old lanterns, coal carts, and dark underground passages create a nostalgic industrial scene inspired by old Japanese coal mines. But turn the notebook over... On the back cover, the frogs are taking a break — again. Their tools have been put aside. Some sit down to rest, some relax with mugs in their hands, and others simply stretch out and make themselves comfortable. They work hard... but they also know when to take it easy. The two covers tell a small story: Front — frogs hard at work. Back — frogs on a well-earned break. This notebook is part of the Working Frogs Work Log series, featuring hardworking frogs and their slightly laid-back lives in nostalgic Japanese workplaces. Perfect for anyone who loves frogs, Showa-retro design, old industrial scenery, coal mines, mining history, or unusual Japanese stationery with a little humor.
