Curator Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 Good afternoon, I am new to this forum and hope someone can help me! I work at a children's museum, and trying to find a full Japanese scouting uniform for an upcoming exhibit on contemporary Japanese life. The uniform could be any year. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to start looking? Thanks for your help and suggestions! Curator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoreaScouter Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 Get to Far East Council's web site, hit one of the links for somebody in Japan District or Okinawa District, and make contact with one of the Scouters there. They are very closely allied with SAJ (Scout Association of Japan) people, who I'm sure could make arrangements to get you a SAJ uniform. We had two SAJ Scouters in my WB class in Okinawa, and they were great people... KS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbeaver Posted January 3, 2005 Share Posted January 3, 2005 Good evening... I may be able to fulfill your need for a Japanese Scout Uniform. Let me know a bit about your needs and where this museum is located. Does the museum have a web page? bigbeaver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curator Posted January 3, 2005 Author Share Posted January 3, 2005 Hello, The Children's Museum is located in Indianapolis, Indiana. The website is www.childrensmuseum.org. As for the uniform, I am looking for any age outfit. This will be used in one of our textile cases featuring traditional to contemporary life in Japan (in connection with a traveling exhibition called "Five Friends from Japan"). I will be needing an outfit in the next month or so. Sorry about the timeframe! If you could help me out, that would be great. I have yet to hear from the other contact KS suggested. Thanks again.

bigbeaver Posted January 3, 2005 Share Posted January 3, 2005 It has been years but I have visited the Indianapolis Children's Museum. If you would please send me a private message with address I will box-up the uniform and send it your way. Once received you can let me know if it fulfills your need. bigbeaver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
