WW2 Imperial Japanese Army Infantry 58th Regiment Banner / 7th Company

  

WW2 Imperial Japanese Army Unit Banner - 58th Infantry Regiment, 7th Company. This is an original unit flag from the Imperial Japanese Army, featuring the name of the 58th Infantry Regiment, 7th Company (/) boldly embroidered in white on a rich purple cloth with golden fringe. The fabric, stitching, and traditional hanging style suggest authentic wartime production.

A later tag indicates it was "newly tailored" on August 15, 1977 (Showa 52), likely for a veteran reunion or memorial event. However, the flag itself is original from the WWII era-only the pole and decorative fittings are postwar additions for ceremonial use. The 58th Infantry Regiment was formed in Kokura, and during the Second Sino-Japanese War, it was deployed to North China, participating in operations around Tianjin and Baoding. In WWII, the regiment became part of the 21st Army, later integrated into the Southern Expeditionary Army Group.

They were stationed in southern China and eventually deployed to the Philippines during the Pacific War. The 7th Company would have been a sub-unit actively involved in jungle warfare and coastal defense.

This banner is not merely a military item-it carries the memories of a regiment, its soldiers, and their families. The deep purple cloth still holds the spirit of those who marched under it. A rare, powerful historical artifact. Own a piece of history. 105 × 50 cm (flag only). Included: flag + pole + metal spearhead (display use). Condition: Used, with age-related wear and slight stains.

Note: Only the flag is original wartime. International Buyers - Please Note. Thank you for your understanding.
