    Judging by what appears to be bloodstains on it, not that lucky for the original owner....

    Nice pick up Al!

    A very nice yosegake. The majority of these were taken from the bodies of dead Japanese soldiers so finding blood stains is sort of normal on these.

    I really like these flags, i had one many years ago more or less in very good clean condition and have regretted selling it ever since, my one came from a Burma Vet who used to work at the same factory as me , he also had the 1000 stitch banner but his son kept that and a terrific Type 90 helmet with netting in good condition, but i left to join the police force and never saw him again
