Yokai Dorotabou (Mud Zombie) Postcard

The Dorotabou (泥田坊, "He of the Muddy Rice Fields"), is a mud zombie from Japanese mythology. Said to be the restless spirit of a hard-working farmer whose rice fields were carelessly sold after his death by his irresponsible children, this one-eyed zombie torso youkai appears at night to demand the return of his ruined farmland. This postcard features a cartoon drawing of an absurdly adorable elderly mud zombie, with one eye, a farmer's hat tied around his neck, and a few straggling rice plants from where he arose. Seriously, this is the cutest zombie I've ever seen. The caption on the back reads: "Front: A cartoon drawing of the youkai Dorotabou (泥田坊), the restless spirit of a deceased rice farmer, who appears as a mud zombie to demand the return of his fields."
