Battleship Mutsu Salvage Commemoration, Anchor-Shaped Object, Used Item, Ornament, Model, 30:1, Gold Color x Acrylic Plate x Wooden Base. This item has been stored for a long time. Size (cm) Width: 9.5cm, Depth: 3.5cm, Height: 13cm (Slight errors may occur due to amateur measurements) This is a valuable item made using actual materials from the battleship Mutsu, which mysteriously exploded and sank in the Seto Inland Sea, Kutsushima anchorage, in 1943. It was salvaged by Fukada Salvage Co., Ltd. starting in 1970. 【Condition】 There are fine scratches on the acrylic due to aging. The anchor part and the base are in relatively good condition. Please check the photos and consider purchasing. This is an old item, so please purchase only if you understand it as a vintage item. 【History of the Battleship Mutsu】 The battleship Mutsu sank on June 8, 1943 (Showa 18), due to a mysterious explosion while at anchor in the Hashirajima Strait (off Ibotada, Suo-Oshima), as part of the Combined Fleet Headquarters. The disaster resulted in 1,471 crew members, with 1,121 deaths and only 350 survivors. The first attempt to salvage the ship was made in 1947 (Showa 22), but the work at a depth of 42m was extremely difficult and was soon abandoned. Then, in June 1970 (Showa 45), the passionate efforts of the bereaved families and survivors, which had lasted for 20 years, finally bore fruit, and the salvage operation was restarted. After 8 years of work, 75% of the hull, including the main guns, as well as the remains and belongings of the crew members, were salvaged.
