    What is this drawing thing?

    I got it years ago from a WW2 Marine, but I have no idea what it is or what it might be worth.

    Thanks,
    Ron

      Thanks Guy. I didn't want to mention it before, but the Marine's name I got it from was Frank Pava. I suppose it was probably something that he had a person make, or bought it and that that put on it.

          Guy,

          Did you know Frank, or are you just pleased that you got it?

            There is also a Japanese name written at the bottom right corner.

            Seems like Shiobasa ? The person who gave this piece to Frank.

              These were sometimes done by Japanese prisoners for GIs

                Thank you Taka. Sorry I am an idiot when it comes to Japanese, is that a family name, a woman, or a man? I have a few other drawing type things he brought back, I will have to try to find them and see if they are by the same person.

                  Hi Ron-san,

                  I'm afraid I can't indicate which character for the name(it's in English) and the
                  gender of the sender.

                  I think it's a Last Name. (To me this is an uncommon name)

                  Regards,
                  Taka

                    Hi Takasan ... I can see it a bit better:

                    Shiobara
                    Ron, Shiobara is a surname and in kanji: 塩原 [Salt Field]

                        Thank you, Guy-san.

                        That make much sense.
