Japanese WWII Rising Sun Flag with Shunga Artwork
Japanese WWII Rising Sun flag featuring hand-rendered shunga-style artwork on one side. The reverse displays the classic red-and-white rising sun design, while the opposite side contains a (censored for listing) explicit Japanese erotic art scene. Shunga artwork on a national or military-style flag is highly unusual and would have been considered improper or forbidden by traditional standards, adding to the distinctive and provocative nature of this piece. This is a unique example for collectors of Japanese WWII militaria, bring-back souvenirs, trench art, occupation-related material, or unusual wartime folk art. Condition: please review photos for full details.
