FREE: Vintage Japanese Hand Fan. 1960's Japan Airlines

The listing, Vintage Japanese Hand Fan. 1960's Japan Airlines has ended.

Vintage Japanese Folding Hand Fan. Japan Airlines 1960's. his beautiful folding hand fan measures a little over 13" wide while spread open and about 9" tall, as seen in the photos.

The photos do not do it justice. Especially the second photo with the bird, as its spread open wings are actually done in a gold and black (mostly gold) design. The "Japan Airlines" lettering is also done in gold.

Please note in the first photo, there is a small tear where the paper has split ( about 3/4" long on the 3rd rail?? over from the right side (in the blue section of the design). This should be a very easy fix with a paint brush and some glue and a steady hand. Because of this tear, I have refrained from opening since getting the fan about 8 years ago.

I received this fan from an elderly friend of the family who told me that he got this on one of his flights to or from Okinawa Japan, while stationed there in what I believe he said 1964 or 1965. Either way....1960's for sure.

Cleaning out drawers and getting ready for a move soon. Thought someone would appreciate its beauty. Good luck bidding!
