This listing is for a vintage happi coat - typically worn
for parades or festivals, and usually decorated with auspicious designs or
kanji that refer to an event sponsor, community organization, or even the town
government.
The background is a bright lime green with a white checkerboard motif across the hemline. A large, white logo on the back seems to include a cresent moon and an old-fasioned telephone receiver.
On the front collar is white kanji lettering that can be translated as
"I love public phones" and "Japanese Public Telephone Association" .
Watch the video below on the Gion Matsuri - a summer festival in Kyoto that
features huge parade floats pulled by (mostly) men in happi coats! The coats
are also worn by observers along the very crowded sidewalks!
