Original Japanese WWII Named Hand Painted Good Luck "Victory" Flag - 29" x 37" British Field Gear over a banner reading TENEZOriginal Item: One of a kind. Just purchased from a large military auction. This hand painted cloth flag is not like most that we have seen. It is a standard "Good Luck" flag size, but the writing on it, which has been translated, is not like we see on the typical example. From information we were provided, the flag reads: Congratulations on the great Victory! Banzai for the Imperial Army Conquering The Fall of Kankouyoa! From the Turugitani Ward
