IJN Flight Goggles with Case

[J7W22007]

I've finally got a pair of IJN flight goggles with a original case.

Goggles are around but not the cases, they are harder to find.

The goggles were made from Yamamoto Kogaku Co., Ltd (山本光学株式会社). For reference: Swans (eyewear) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

What's more interesting is the case. I really like the the eagle art design.

the character from left to right:

航空　眼鏡(Kou-kuu Gan-kyou) - Aerial Goggles

Underneath the case wrote:

4 分隊 (Yon Buntai) - 4th Squad

小島　勉 - Kojima Tsutomu

The owner once removed the inner cushion materials in order to have a better or tighter feeling. So it was a custom modified piece.

I was very grateful to get such item !























Thank you for looking.

Very nice goggles! You do know that the box is for a different goggle maker though? The maker on the box is the Toa Safety Glass Co.

Thanks Dean-san!

Yes, I notice that.

Also, the Toa made the double lenses on the goggles. Maybe I will find one loose in the future.

Still I got it as a set and I wound n' t complaint at all.
