I just got a package from Japan today full of parts... while I always look forward to getting packages from Japan, this time my friend said he also put a little gift in there for me. It ended up being a reprint tshirt from the old school 70's Skyline promotional campaign... Ken and Mary. I thought it was pretty cool, although I doubt many people will know what the hell it means


"The C110 Skyline was better known as the "Ken & Mary" or "Kenmeri" (ケンメリ) Skyline, stemming from the advertisement campaign in Japan at the time which featured a young couple (Ken and Mary) who relaxed and enjoyed the countryside in Ken and Mary's Skyline (ケンとメリーのスカイライン)."
