pieter1012 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Richard, thanks again for the nice pictures from the collection of Okuma. The Belgian one is the Grandcross order of Leopold (civil division). The case is wrong; belongs to the Italian order of the Crown (U on the lid is for Umberto) The second order is the Grandcross of the order of the Red Eagle of Prussia and the third one is the grandcross of the order of Villa Vicosa of Portugal.

fukuoka Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 Thanks very much, Pieter! As I stated before, I am taking notes so I don't have to ask again. Sorry about the case mistake. I must have mixed up the photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gensui Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Chris, I am a digillitarate and don't know how to put pictures on GMIC. But if you go to the site of Richard (imperialjapanmedalsandbadges) under Grandcordon a picture is shown of Kato's order of the Chrysanthemum document, which he received posthumously on 28 January 1926. The Grandcordon shown by Richard is not Kato's, but his looks exactly the same. Hope this is of some use to you, Pieter Pieter, That's ok for me, for sure! BTW, if you have further information (documents, pictures, etc.) about Kato Takaaki, please feel free to contact me via pm. BR, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
