Japan - Flag - Vintage Army Flag Hinomaru with Special Wooden box , before 1945 , Military
◆Vintage Army Flag HINOMARU 日の丸
Size: 64 x 80 cm
Material: cotton
◆Special Wooden box
Size: 21. 5 x 10 x10 cm
Weight: 400g
This is an old and rare box from the period before the end of the war.
The date of production is not noted, but there are several elements that can be determined.
1 The reading of Japanese Kanji characters flows from right to left.
2 April 29 is the day "Tenchosai 天長祭" to celebrate Emperor Showa's birthday.
This is the way it was called in the first half of the Showa period until the end of the war.
3 "Yasukuni Shrine Festival 靖国神社大祭" is celebrated twice, in spring and in autumn.
Since Japan was defeated by the U. S. in 1945, it is no longer possible to publicly celebrate
in the name of Yasukuni Shrine, which enshrines military personnel.
For these three reasons, we can conclude that this was before the war(WW2) .
Many flags in wooden boxes exist. However, it is difficult to find such a luxurious and well-preserved one. The surface of the wooden box is coated with “urushi 漆,” a high-grade material. The lacquer black luster is very beautiful and wonderful items.
Carefully packaged and shipped from Japan to overseas.
We have other rare items up for current auction,so please check back.
