Toryu2020 Posted September 13, 2022 Report Posted September 13, 2022 Two and three are upside down... Quote
Henrik123 Posted September 13, 2022 Author Report Posted September 13, 2022 Sorry for the two last pictures being upside down. I hope it still is readable. Quote
Toryu2020 Posted September 13, 2022 Report Posted September 13, 2022 The label gives a date and a name - the other two look like poems about armour. I am sure if you are patient "nobody" will be able to translate for you... -t Quote
uwe Posted September 13, 2022 Report Posted September 13, 2022 As for the date, I can imagine it is 天保十 (1839)… 2 Quote

SteveM Posted September 16, 2022 Report Posted September 16, 2022 The bit on the left, after the date, is a name (or two names) 藤野藤四郎 Fujino Tōshirō 藤原清勝 Fujiwara Kiyokatsu (could also be Fujimune 藤宗) I can't get the bits after the year, which Uwe has already provided. 4 Quote
