Original Japan WWII Imperial Japanese Army Rising Sun Silk Mt. Fuji Walking Stick Flag - 11½ x 14”
-
Original Item. Only One Available. The Rising Sun Flag (旭日旗 Kyokujitsu-ki) design was originally used by feudal warlords in Japan during the Edo period. On May 15, 1870, as a policy of the Meiji government, it was adopted as the war flag of the Imperial Japanese Army, and on October 7, 1889, it was adopted as the naval ensign of the Imperial Japanese Navy (Naval flags have the sun off center to the left).
This is a very interesting flag with a bit of text commemorating the climb of Mt. Fuji. These would be attached to walking sticks used in climbing Mt. Fuji. The text translates to Conquest of Joy, Fuji Climb Commemoration 3776 Meters of Sea.
The flag measures 11½ x 14”. It’s in great condition overall and retains its tying strings. A great piece, ready for further research and display.
