Inscribed 'North Manchuria Defense Commemorative, Sakai'.
Inscribed 'China Incident Commemorative, Ozaki'.
Very scarce Chinese flag cup. This cup is from around late 1940 and
commemorates Sino-Japanese cooperation in the form of the reconstructed
Nationalist Gov't at Nanking under Dr. Wang. It is the successor to the cups
with the Japanese flag and the five-striped Chinese republic flag.
Note that the crane and the rim are painted silver, not the usual gold.

| Here is a stunning, hand-painted cup that has a 5-striped Chinese republic flag and a Japanese Regiment Standard. Below the flags is a family crest. Inscribed 'Taisho 2 [1913], Furlough Commemorative.' Each flag also has an inscription. The Chinese flag says 'Revolution Flag' and the Japanese 'Infantry 6th Regiment.' On the reverse is a long inscription: 'North China Increase Troops Dispatch, Infantry 6th Regiment, 2nd Battalion, Army Infantry Sergeant Kato [??], Furlough Award.' |
Inscribed 'China Incident Commemorative, Ohno.' |
| The design has the flag of the Japanese-controlled puppet state of Nanking. This flag had a yellow pennant added to the Chinese Republic flag. There were three different pennant with similar inscriptions. This pennant says 'Peace and Anti-Communism.' This type of flag was used from 1940 to 1943, and it was created by the Nanking National government (Wang Ching-Wei's government 1940-1945). The pennants were dropped in February 1943, allegedly to cause confusion among the Chinese people. CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATION. Japanese wartime items related to Nanking are highly prized and usually rare. This is the first sake cup I have seen with such a flag. Also inscribed 'China Incident Commemorative.' |

Very rare Nanking National government (Wang Jing-Wei's government
1940-1945) flag. Note the yellow banner attached to the top of the Chinese flag.
The Wikipedia article shows the yellow banner with the slogan, but there were
actually 3 different slogans used, depending on the area of Nanking. You can
see all three versions HERE (middle of the page).
Inscribed 'Commemorative.'
The green kanji read something like 'You have fought bravely in this holy war
for the Emperor. Now return home and enjoy looking at the flowers.'
