leo Posted November 19, 2012 Report Posted November 19, 2012 Ian, the mei names a famous armour maker of the Miyochin family and is easy to identify, particularly the last kanji before the saku. How about a picture of the helmet? Quote
Ian Posted November 20, 2012 Author Report Posted November 20, 2012 Hi Martin Thank you for the interest, I acquired the armour at the beginning of the 90’s, when the Russian museums were clearing out there basements. It took me 5 years to pluck up the courage to cut the liner. But it only confirmed my thought; I could tell it was a completely different quality to the others I had seen. The right arm was missing and the suneate. But thanks to Katchushi, it is getting there. I will take some pictures over the next few days and post Kind Regards Quote
