SOLD

Original WWII Japanese SOLDIER’S PERSONAL BLOOD STAINED BATTLE DAMAGED NATIONAL FLAG WITH KANJI Brought Home By A U.S. Veteran Certified. Most Japanese troops during the second world war carried a personal flag. They had practical as well as patriotic uses, such as marking positions to keep them safe from friendly aircraft while advancing. Two piece example is 68cm x 52cm. An approximately 22cm diameter red “Himaru” is screened to the center of the flag’s white field. We placed a helmet on the flag for size reference. Handwritten, in black, around the Himaru are numerous kanji characters. Shows the expected age and use. .Both of the two Tie-strings are intact and has period leather reinforcements. This flag is SLIGHTLY BLOOD STAINED and was almost certainty taken from a KILLED IN ACTION Japanese Soldier. The faint blood stain is there but it is not too gory so it’s very displayable. Also has a bullet strike that lines up when folded.  100% Guaranteed to be authentic and is certified by The Gettysburg Museum Of History and comes with our Museum COA (certificate of authenticity). A rare piece of WWII history. DO NOT MISS THIS!, good salty condition some very  small tearing. A real “been there” look with lots of Kanji!
