Japanese medals, papers, books, flags, please help me

[zbv500]

Hello guys,

may I get your help on the following lot I just found. I have absolutly no idea what I have here. First time I run across a Japanese lot over here in East Germany. It even makes me wonder how it ended up here.
Would you please give me some insight as to what I have here ?? Further I would be interested in the value of the lot all together.
Many thanks, Jens

Hi,
A very nice find!
At a glance I can see a WW2 China incident medal, some Red Cross awards with correct stick pins, and a 1904-5 Russo-Japanese war medal...
Would need more detailed pictures to be sure though, and I love the presentation boxes
Im not sure about the papers, photos etc. but I’m sure the experienced members here will help with identifying everything soon enough.

Hi guys,

many thanks for your contribution. Its much appriciated. Its realy a total new area for me so I would ask you Chen, what is the "green" and the "award" you highlighted in the first picture ?
Thanks for your translation as well, very interesting to know.

Many thanks, Jens

I have no idea what these medals are.
If you can post better photos of all those items having Kanji writing on, I can perhaps be able to translate more as some photos are blurred.

I agree with Chen - if you want to know details about these I suggest you place these in an orderly row and column fashion and take a front and back photo of the whole thing and number the medals in the big photo. From what i see I will tell you that most of these are NOT valuable so drilling down on all of them is up to the individual member.
