Very rare version of Kanji Roller WP #155 'Miyako Yama Ka'.
There are only 3 known example of kanji roller WP #155 in the smaller (standard) size. Most of them are in the skinnier 7 inch size.
This kanji roller is a beautiful blue-green color that has more of a bluish tint.
There are two minor 'smiley face' cracks in one of the ears. This is a fairly common occurence in kanji rollers.
I was told an interesting story from the seller who received this float as a gift from an elderly man on Kodiak Island. This elderly man told the seller that he had found the kanji roller during WWII. He was just a boy at the time and his father was away with the Marines in the Pacific campaign.
