Vintage Japanese Costume Doll, Yoshitsune

• 
• 

NAME: Vintage Japanese costume doll of Yoshitsune, original cardboard box, no lid.

AGE: Mid Showa (1926-1989), probably late 40's to 50's.

SIZE: 7-1/2"

CONDITION: Some light dirt and wear to the paint on the feet and a spot on his armor. His right sleeve has become undone and needs to be glued. The material under the arms was a little short and you can see the straw body underneath. Cardboard box shows it's age, has a split corner and the lid is missing.

He does not have pegs in the feet and I'm not sure how he is supposed to stand. There is a small hole in the stand. Maybe he holds onto the bow and the other end goes in the hole?

NOTES: The hands are carved wood. His accessories include a sword, bow and a couple of arrows.
