My name is Howard Dennis and I'm seeking information on an antique box I recently purchased. Doing online searches I found it relates to the groups your website serves. Here is what I posted on a Japanese speakers website:
Being a former Marine I couldn't resist this especially since I collect Japanese art. It's an art form of gold and silver inlay over a controlled rusted surface called Komai. Has the name Mac on one end and Jeauue on the other. I'm told a unit flew this style helicopter out of Okinawa in the 1950's and 1960's. Other than that suggestion I have no idea when it was made. It has the Amita logo on the bottom. Do the characters under the names look like kanji?
Thanks for any help,
Howard Dennis
This item would have had to have been custom ordered so I assume the owner would have been stationed in Japan??
This is one response I got on that site:
Those Gothic 'u's are probably 'n's, so it would actually be Jeanne. Plus the Japanese underneath reinforces this with 'Jane'.
