  The Sasakura bundle is a relatively recent appearance in the world of
remarkable vector bundles on projective spaces. In fact, it is connected with
some surfaces in $\mathbb P^4$ which missed in early classification papers. The
aim of this note is to present various, scattered in the literature, aspects
concerning the geometry of this bundle. The last part will be devoted to the
place of this bundle in the classification of globally generated locally free
sheaves with $c_1 \leq 4$ on $\mathbb P^n$ in a joint paper with I. Coanda and
N. Manolache.
