Meiji University (明治大学, Meiji daigaku?) is a private university in Tokyo and Kawasaki, founded in 1881 by three lawyers of the Meiji era, Kishimoto Tatsuo, Miyagi Kōzō, and Yashiro Misao. It is one of the largest and most prestigious Japanese universities in Tokyo, Japan. Sourced from Wikipedia

I think I've posted this previous...picked it up at the 2011 National. I have a lot of one of a kind pieces but I thought this would be a classic example for this thread. I'm wild for sports event broadside posters. The guy I got it from specialized in Japanese baseball....He'd never seen it before and told me it was the from the first year Yankee Stadium opened.
