In Japan the Datsun Sunny 1200 取扱説明書 (translated as User's Guide or Instruction Manual). Different from the dry technicality of western owner's manuals, in the the User's Guide a young lady teaches with photographs everything from how to listen to the radio to how to change a tire, it is a very polite and hands-on instruction manual

Here is the Van edition for 1972 facelift. The owner wrote 14 March 1973 (Showa 48) on the back
