This is a rare men's juban from around Taisho period(1912-1925). Textile is jinken(rayon), but very similar soft and smooth touch to silk.
It has very unique war-horse theme motifs.

-Horse with boy soldier, text near them reads 'aiba koushin kyoku'( beloved horse march )
-Rushing soldiers on horses
-Horse toy and record with song name 'Aiba-shingun-ka'( beloved horse anabasis song )
-Bag with text reads 'Aiba-bukuro, mugon-no-senshi'( speechless soldier, beloved horse bag )

Theme is war, but we feel the affection to the horse from this piece. Designer had to pity horses, who were sent off to the war.

Very unique and rare piece!
