On Ebay - the Takeda Clan's Koyo Gunkan

by kitsuno

I have two copies of the Koyo Gunkan, so I've listed one for sale on Ebay. It is the cleanest and newest of my two copies, in very excellent condition. Buying it on amazon.co.jp would probably cost well over $50, so hopefully this is a good deal:
