Hi Paul,

That's an outstanding piece.

Regards,
Stu

Edit: If you don't mind Paul I'm going to copy the first picture to my drive. I have a signed battle flag too but don't know where it originated. I'd like to spend some time comparing the two.

Paul, thats a very nice flag and to have a picture of it is over the top. Thanks for showing this great piece. Regards, David.

This is the BEST set I've ever seen & one of my favorites from the book. It is in my opinion the ultimate flag.

Thank you guys for the nice comments! Its the highlight of my Japanese collection. I enjoyed the opportunity to share it with everyone. I thought at one point I had lost it forever. I sent it in the mail to Mike B to photograph for his book. I work as a Firefighter, and we had a looong night. When I got off shift in the morning, I sent out the package in the mail. When I addressed it, I forgot to add "Beach", after the name of the city he lives in. Turns out the city he lives in is next to a city with the same name, minus "beach". Needless to say, it was sent to the other city. It was lost for a couple of weeks. Thanks to our postal service, they came through and delivered it to the correct address, despite my bad addressing. I must say, I was sick until Mike B gave me the good news that it had arrived.

book flags ???

Here is a flag I have had for a number of years. Some of you may
recognize this flag, as it was featured in Dr. Michael A. Bortner's book,
Imperial Japanese Good Luck Flags and One-Thousand stitch Belts.
The flag is also featured on the cover of the book. ...

Hello PG:
Nice flag, especially cool to see it featured in that
really great MAB book. I've done that too with some
of my own flags, in several books and magazines.
