This is an original 1929 Imperial Japanese Navy engineering training textbook, titled Marine Engineering Textbook – Practical Mathematics, issued by the Imperial Japanese Navy Engineering School. The Navy Engineering School specialized in training the technical personnel who kept Japanese warships operating. Battleships and cruisers could not move on naval power alone-they depended on engineers and engine-room personnel capable of understanding and maintaining complex machinery. This textbook taught the practical mathematics required for naval engineering work. It begins with arithmetic, fractions, decimals, ratios, percentages, areas, and volumes, then applies these skills to technical problems involving subjects such as steam pressure, cylinders, pistons, horsepower, fuel, coal, displacement, speed, and cruising distance. In other words, this was not simply a school mathematics book. It shows how the Imperial Japanese Navy trained the men responsible for operating the machinery inside its warships. The cover is dated April 1, 1929 (Showa 4) and identifies the Imperial Japanese Navy Engineering School and its engineering training courses. The historical timing is particularly interesting. The Navy Engineering School was established as an independent institution in 1928 after being separated from the Naval Engineering College. This textbook therefore dates from one of the earliest years of the newly independent school. Why is it rare? Unlike commercially published books, this was a specialized internal training textbook intended for a limited group of Imperial Japanese Navy engineering trainees. Such technical educational materials were working documents rather than souvenirs intended to survive for generations. The Imperial Japanese Navy suffered catastrophic losses during WWII and was completely dissolved in 1945. Over the following decades, many of its internal textbooks, manuals, and training materials were discarded or dispersed. Nearly a century later, surviving examples provide an unusual window into a side of naval history that is often overlooked. This is not a book about famous admirals or naval battles. It is something more personal: the knowledge that ordinary technical personnel had to master before they could enter an engine room and help keep a Japanese warship moving. A fascinating piece for collectors of Imperial Japanese Navy militaria, naval engineering, military education, and original prewar technical documents. Own a Piece of History. International Buyers – Please Note.
This is an original Imperial Japanese Army engineering textbook. Compiled in 1923 (Taisho 12) for use at the Imperial Japanese Army Academy. Titled “Student Fortification Engineering Manual – Supplementary Diagrams and Tables”. This volume was created specifically for engineer cadets, who were trained to design and construct. Field fortifications, defensive positions, trenches, obstacles, and battlefield layouts. According to the cover inscription, this copy was personally owned by an Army engineer cadet. Enrolled in the regular officer training course, making it a genuine used instructional manual. Not a ceremonial or later reprint. The book contains numerous technical diagrams, maps, structural layouts, and engineering illustrations. Including fortress planning, troop deployment concepts, and early military aviation-related schematics. Handwritten notes and annotations remain, offering rare insight into how future officers actually studied and applied military engineering. Condition is heavily worn, with stains, tears, aging, and possible missing plates. But these characteristics strongly reflect its authentic use in military education. A highly desirable primary-source item for collectors of. Imperial Japanese Army history. Military engineering & fortification studies. Pre-WWII Asian military doctrine. Approximate 7-21days(To USA).
Dzerzhinsky, 1935 – 40, belonging to Mechanical Engineer V. There are a total of 31 visible pictures glued to stiff cardboard pages, including one from a. May 1937 Red Army parade, a montage of “USSR Builds Socialism” and many other pictures of instructors, many of which are rarely seen. NOTE: the glue that the pictures are affixed to the pages has seeped into a few pages at the end of the album, where several pages are stuck together, and so there are a few pictures still uncovered.
