vintageproductions Posted April 2, 2019 Share #1 Posted April 2, 2019 I was listing this on our website tonight and thought I should add it here as it is such a cool flag. Japanese Osaka Mainichi Press Cross Pacific Flight 1939 Flag. Cotton body, with foil like corners. Roughly twenty-seven by thirty-nine inches. Great printed graphics. The characters roughly translated it reads OSAKA MAINICHI PRESS FLY AROUND THE WORLD, CROSS PACIFIC 1939. There was also a newspaper in Tokyo at same time that sent their plane ( divine wind) also on a cross Pacific / around the world flight, in competition.

Flightpath Posted April 2, 2019 Share #2 Posted April 2, 2019 That's really interesting, I'll have to look it up and see what aircraft they used, I wonder what their future plans were? (sarcastic smiley not available). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
