| Finding a vehicle on a sake cup is a rare treat. Although these were almost always stamped patterns (not hand-painted), they are still scarce. Among vehicle cups, trucks are the most common pattern. Wheeled artillery vehicles are also found here and there, but tanks are incredibly scarce, probably because the IJA didn't use tanks very much.
