The April 1962 has an interesting set of interviews with famous Japanese judoka after Geesink's win at the Olympics - nice, hadn't read that before.
The katakiuchi incident (authorized vendetta culminating in deadly combat) in which the sisters avenge their murdered father is one that I think was actually made into a kabuki play. I have a copy of a similar woodblock print as below that commemorates the event.
