A Unique & Rare Antique Japanese Prayer / Military Flag (Yosegaki Hinomaru)

C. WW2 Era

Believed to be dedicated to a serviceman (aviator) Mr. Asai Tomoo and hand-inscribed and signed all over with wishes and prayers for a successful / fruitful mission, from colleagues based in the Shanghai office of Kokusai Unyu Co. Ltd.

A fascinating and collectable object.
