Hello all.
I seriously collect Japanese WWII era flags in addition to inert ordnance. This beautiful signed Japanese flag with artwork was offered through YahooJapan this past week. I did not bid, Can our members who can read Japaneses script comment on the writing? Can we know if this is WWII period or modern Japanese script? How can we determine if this is Period or Post WWII work?. This is not an easy question to answer. We all know signed Japanese flag forgeries are being newly made here and overseas. I'd like to hear opinions on this flag. It's a beauty I must say....
