IJN Ensign and Jack

[tdurbinmas]

Here are a couple of IJN flags I just acquired for my collection. A pair of gorgeous hand sewn flags. A size 6 ensign and a size 4 Jack. They were from the family of the veteran who acquired them during the War. Excellent quality with the IJN trademark hand stitching. Both flags are complete with heavy mantilla rope in the header.

The label indicates manufacture by a cooperative of wives of navy seamen and NCOs called Kaijin-Kai located in Maizuru City, Kyoto. These were typically made by navy housewives as I explained before.
