Buying an international uniform


Curator

Recommended Posts

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!

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...

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.

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.
