Imperial Japanese Army Ammunition Pouch – Late Type? – Takatsu Mark

An original Imperial Japanese Army ammunition pouch from the wartime period.

This example features a distinctive 「高津」 (Takatsu) maker's mark and a construction characteristic of the later type, including riveted fastening and a hemp-reinforced rubber material.

Details

The construction and material suggest that this may be a later type ammunition pouch, although the exact production date and model cannot be confirmed.

Condition

The material has become considerably hardened with age.

The pouch can be opened and closed slightly, but the fastening does not operate smoothly. Due to the hardened material, it is recommended primarily as a display or collection piece rather than for regular use.

There is overall age-related wear and deterioration.

The photographs were taken under bright lighting, so the actual color appears somewhat darker than in the photographs.

Please carefully examine all photographs for the exact condition, markings, and details.

An interesting original item for collectors of Imperial Japanese Army militaria and World War II Japanese military equipment.
