    Japanese Ribbons??

    Went to a local auction and picked up several military items ranging from a U.S. WWI helmet to a theater made knife. In the lot was a tin box and it had these ribbons along with various other odds and ends. Can someone please help me identify these and the era they are from? I don't know anything about Japanese items.
    Thanks for any help, it is greatly appreciated.

    B. National Foundation Merit Medal 1933 (Manchukuo)
    C. ???

      Guy, you lettered these by vertical columns, right? 1st column--starting with A--is on the left.

      C looks to be 1934 Manchukuo Emperor Enthronement.
      both F and G are Rising Sun, as mentioned.
      H seems to be 1939 Nomonhan Incident Medal.
      I is probably 1940 Manchukuo Census.

      As a side note, these Japanese ribbons all appear unused and are most likely replicas.

        These are being mounted in Japan & sold as ribbon bars. Beware
