Original WWII Imperial Japanese Navy Aviation Pilot Float Vest MUSEUM QUALITY    Original WWII Imperial Japanese Navy Aviation Pilot Float Vest MUSEUM QUALITY
Rare Imperial Japanese WWII IJN Naval Aviation Forces 100% Complete with all ties and Green Tag and White Interior Label. This is a rare probably issued and unworn complete example of museum quality in near mint condition. The Naval Float Vest is an iconic item always seen worn by Japanese Navy pilots of WWII. Yet today they are among the rarest of WW2 collectibles especially when found in this choice condition!

The original interior cloth label remains intact and even has the small paper label affixed at the side. The label among other data has the issue date of 1944. The exterior rear has the correct and beautiful condition green cloth tag that is without applied ink kanji indicating this is un-named and therefore un-issued which accounts for the superb condition.

All ties are all there and in superb condition. I obtained this superlative example from a respected historian and author many years ago and have never found a better example. I have shown these in the closeup images. There is a tiny small finger nail size puncture at the bottom inside, it looks superficial and there is no loss to the inside material. On the outside front is a small area with a little white film on it; I never tried to remove it as I believe in leaving things as found but it could probably be cleaned off.

Photos taken in natural sunlight without enhancement. WW2 samurai, bushido, Pearl Harbor, Tarawa, Iwo Jima, kamikaze, kaigun.
