Marius Posted September 22, 2015 Report Posted September 22, 2015 Dear All, I just wanted to humbly ask for quick help - I can't decipher the date on this torokusho I need to give info quickly to a friend. Sorry to bother you with such a trifle, I see that mei is Moritsugu but I am lost with the date... Thank you in advance, and once again, sorry... Quote
Marius Posted September 22, 2015 Author Report Posted September 22, 2015 Damn, I am such an idiot... Quote
Peter Bleed Posted September 22, 2015 Report Posted September 22, 2015 1959, july 18 (i think) Showa 34, shichi-gatsu, ju hachi nichi Quote
John A Stuart Posted September 22, 2015 Report Posted September 22, 2015 昭和四生七月 Showa 4, month 7. John Quote
Mark Posted September 22, 2015 Report Posted September 22, 2015 they did not use torokusho in Showa 4 (1929). The printing is stamped over so difficult, but I go with Peter, 7th month 18th or 28th day Showa 34 1959 Quote
John A Stuart Posted September 22, 2015 Report Posted September 22, 2015 Yes, looks like 3 tens, 十十十 John Quote
SteveM Posted September 22, 2015 Report Posted September 22, 2015 Not three tens, rather a variant of the kanji for 30 (卅) 昭和卅四年七月拾八日 Shōwa 34, July 18th. Quote
