Product Description
Set of 3 Japanese Vintage Textile Items: Fire Brigade *Happi* Coat, Miso Advertisement Apron, and Kikkoman Advertisement Apron
This is a set of three vintage textile items that offer a glimpse into Japan's traditional lifestyle and commercial culture.
The set includes the following three items:
Yamada Fire Brigade *Happi* coat
Shinshu Miso advertisement apron
Kikkoman advertisement apron
While each item served a different purpose, viewing them together creates a fascinating collection that reflects aspects of local firefighting, commerce, food culture, workwear, and advertising history in Japan.
① Yamada Fire Brigade *Happi* Coat
Pictured in the center is a traditional *happi* (or *hanten*) coat associated with firefighting, bearing the characters for "Yamada Fire Brigade."
Local firefighting organizations have long existed across Japan; specialized *happi* coats were worn not only during firefighting operations but also at local events and ceremonies.
Such firefighting garments are more than just clothing; they serve as intriguing historical artifacts that convey the spirit of Japanese local communities and firefighting culture.

② Shinshu Miso Advertisement Apron
This is a traditional-style apron (*maekake*) featuring the miso product name and company details boldly printed on a black background.
In Japanese shops, liquor stores, and food markets, aprons that doubled as advertisements were commonly worn as actual workwear.
Consequently, these advertising aprons possess a unique charm that evokes the atmosphere of Japanese commerce and food culture from the past.

It is likely to appeal to collectors interested in Japanese food advertising, commercial design, Showa-era retro style, and vintage textiles.
