Incredible Art Deco design depicting University names as well as players wearing their team uniforms during play. Teams include Waseda, Keio, Rikkio, Meiji and more. Adult size kimono is one of the nicest. From the Nippon Baseball Kimono Collection, an important archive of baseball and other sports-themed kimonos recently discovered in Japan and exported to the United States. Compiled over many decades they are the finest we have seen.
