Tengu1957 Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 Myochin Iehisa O-Boshi papered Tokubetsu by the armor society late Edo Myochin Ietsugu Akodonari I posted in error previously in the wrong place.

Many thanks to Nick at nihontoart.com for selling these to me 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tengu1957 Posted February 17 Author Report Share Posted February 17 I'm not sure why it was used , it doesn't look like anything recent. I assume it was done the last time the shikoro was remounted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
