Would like to hear from anyone on the forum (photos) of any small ink kana stamped on the top of the inner wooden scope guide from Type 97 scope cases. I does seem that the majority are not stamped on the top of this scope guide. Rob and John have added (2) additional "variations" in previous post...so with our recent case..that makes (3) different kana ink stamping.. Take a look at any of your 97 scope cases and see if has ink stamp....and if so, could you please post. Hoping this will add to the current research being done..in the hopes of someday...someday...the start of a new book on the subject... thanks for looking..Hemi
