I'd like to add a hat to the first set shown, can I use regular colonel hat or does it has to be with silver star at the top instead of standard gold? If yes, it would be quite hard to obtain...

Thanks again! By the way, do you know what year does this uniform belong to? Again, according to Nakanishi I always thought that's model of 1930, but at your pictures here I saw the same uniform of earlier period, 1910 for example...

And by the way does the trouser-stripe color tell anything, or was it used among all services of Administrative officials?
Thanks!

Dear Paul, thank you very much. So it can be an accountant or a doctor?
How about the sash color? Mine is between blue and green, but I saw also pure-blue and what I think was brown. What shall it mean? Is there any good reading materials in English for reference, except for Nakanishi?
Best regards, Dmitry

I believe it's Administrative official because his shoulder-plates, sleeves and collar embroidery is double color: gold and silver
And I believe it's military police because the color of sleeve-ends and collar is blackm and as we know from Ritta Nakanishi book "Imperial Japanese uniforms 1930-1945" black color is for military police.

Dear Sirs,
I'm new to the forum, interested in Japanese militaria. Recently I obtained what I think is Administrative personnel of military police in the rank equal to colonel.
But it has unusual color sash and trouser-stripe which seems to be between blue and green.
May I ask you to help me and identify the certain service of its' owner? Thank you in advance!
P.S. Don't pay attention to the hat - it's from different set as this one I got without any hat.
