Bruce Pennington Posted October 25, 2021 Report Posted October 25, 2021 I had this filed as a "Feb 1941" but I think it's really 1942, no month - correct? Quote
SteveM Posted October 25, 2021 Report Posted October 25, 2021 Yes 1942. Actually this one says "Kigen 2602" (basically means the same thing as Kōki). 紀元二千六百二年 2 1 Quote
Kiipu Posted October 25, 2021 Report Posted October 25, 2021 Below are the two terms that were in use during the 1930s and 1940s. As stated already, they mean the same thing as far as the date is concerned. Japanese imperial year 皇紀 = kōki = Imperial era. 紀元 = kigen = era. 1 Quote
