Hello everyone,
I was recently able to reunite 2 flags that were brought back home by a returning war veteran. The flag with the Daruma figure I was able to purchase a couple of months ago. The seller said that there was another signed flag with it, that she may be willing to sell in the future. She felt since the second flag was made of silk, that it was worth way more money. I explained to her that the value of the Yosegaki Hinomaru is mainly in the content of the flag, not necessarily in the construction. I made her a nice offer on the flag, which she refused. She had my contact information and I let her know that my offer would be a standing offer. I did ask her to let me know once again if it was going to be sold, as I would like to keep the flags together that came home together. Well, that's what she remembered more than the price I offered her. We were able to work it out an the flags have now been reunited, where they will stay, as long as I am watching over them. The second flag is made of silk, and has some writing in the center of the rising sun. If anyone can tell me anything about this flag, I would appreciate it. I am particularly interested in whats written in the center disc. Thanks everyone and enjoy the pictures.
