JapanX Posted October 17, 2012 Interesting how time and hight humidity could change type 4.1 badge Check this out - even kanji at the box cover patinated and became black ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JapanX Posted October 29, 2012 My recent acquisition Interesting badge (from the family of badges that can be found in posts #163 and #324 + # 327) This one was issued in 1978 (so now we know that association issued badges with this design between 1978 and 1992) in commemoration of Emperor and Empress visit.

JapanX Posted October 29, 2012 Next badge (with design based on Army Military Merit Badge) we`ve seen already in posts # 195-197, but now we have better photos + photo of reverse. This badge too was issued in the 1978 in commemoration of Emperor and Empress visit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
