BK-72  Imperial Japanese Army and Navy Uniforms and Equipment
First Edition.  Long out of print, this is an invaluable reference book for collectors of Japanese Militaria! Although written in Japanese, there is a short accompanying English summary with translated index and a number of translated item captions. The book is an incredible compendium with uniforms from the Russo-Japanese war through World War II, hundreds of full color item photographs, divided into branch of service (Army, Navy) and every imaginable category (headgear, footwear, uniforms, accouterments, field equipment, individual weapons, medals and decorations, special uniforms and headgear, airmen, tankers, and more). There are color diagram charts of branch colors and rank insignia, a section on wartime publications: patriotic posters, comics, recruiting posters, postcards, signs, a section on flags – this book presents almost every aspect of Japanese militaria that there is – a truly indispensable reference, long out of print. Measuring about 10.25” by 7.5”.  About 335 pages.
