AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This is a 3-piece set from World War II, including a helmet, tenugui from the preparatory department of Manchuria Medical University, and a military flag.
Each piece has a different owner.
The hand towels from the Preparatory Department of Manchuria Medical University 満州医科大学予科 date back to 1922 to 1933.
About 100 years ago.
Towels at that time were still made from a single piece of thin cotton fabric like this.
It is incredible that a towel made from a single piece of cotton fabric has been preserved in such excellent condition.
Furthermore, Manchurian items are a very sensitive issue in China, Japan, and around the world.
Therefore, Manchurian items are rarely seen even in Japan or China.
Why not add this extremely rare item to your collection.
