Uniforms of the Taehan Empire (1897-1910). The Taehan Empire disappeared in 1910 with the annexation of Korea by Japan, a consequence of the Russo-Japanese War. Sorry for the flash, but they are displayed in a cylinder... Ch. Pic : ? Christophe ? ChR Collection

The War Memorial of Korea, in Seoul, has been opened in June 1994. It displays various historical relics in the honour of all Koreans who fought to defend the country from foreign invasions, throughout the ages. It traces the history of war in Korea, from the Three Kingdoms Period to the Korean War. It is also, of course, a place of remembrance, a Memorial. This is a really well done Museum, and I recommand its visit if you go to Seoul. On the pic : The Korean War Monument, at the entrance of the War Memorial site. Ch. Pic : ? Christophe ?

Hi Andreas, Have you tried to contact Ed (Haynes) ? I'm not sure he has one, but surely can be of help... Cheers. Ch.

It is clear and obvious it did not look exactly like the one displayed in Detlev Niemann's Price Guide - edition 2 (page 555)... Ch.

Another one. Ch. Pic : ? Christophe ? ChR Collection
