Here is an introduction to a rare antique folding fan from the old Japanese military, related to current affairs. This fan features: * An illustration of the "Declaration of War" * Wartime designs related to the capture of Qingdao * What appears to be a portrait of Lieutenant General Mitsuomi Kamio, commander of the Qingdao Assault Army This piece strongly evokes the lineage of current affairs fans and war commemoration fans from around the early Taisho era. In particular, fans with images related to Mitsuomi Kamio are not common in the market, and are attracting attention as collector's items with valuable historical significance for military history, modern history, and research on the Qingdao campaign. The fan ribs are made of wood, and the fan surface is made of paper. The design composition, layout, and printing style also well represent the unique sense of the times characteristic of current affairs items of that era. There is damage due to aging, such as: * Yellowing * Stains * Peeling and tearing of the fan surface * Warping of the ribs However, the historical value and atmosphere as an antique are well preserved, and I believe the condition does not detract from its appeal for collection purposes. (※ There are individual differences in the assessment of condition. Please be sure to check the images.) As a military history document, a current affairs fan collection, or a Qingdao campaign-related collectible—I would be happy to pass it on to someone who understands its value. It will be carefully packed and shipped. Thank you for viewing.
