My collection in Kyrgyzstan - Tanaka Hideki - 04-12-2011

Hi guys !

I am Japanese who is working Bishkek Kyrgyzstan.
Now I am living 2years at here.
Of course, Kyrgyzstan is part of the former Soviet Union.
Thus, I can easily obtain uniform of the Soviet Union in Kyrgyzstan.

But,Collector markets is not developed like a Russia etc.
So, I 'm buying the collection Bazaar and newspaper ads, Voentorg etc....

My current problem is how to take collections to home at japan.

Those are some very nice sets, great finds! Have you checked the export regulations for bringing out "cultural value"? I do not know what regulations Kyrgyzstan have in regard to Soviet items, if like Russia or more relaxed like the Baltic states? Hopefully some of our great forum members can help :)

Get a Visa, Drive them over the border to China whilst with all the items. If any Kyrgyz customs have a problem throw money at them and then find the first post office in China and post it home. Looks like a bit much to hide in a suitcase or hand luggage. Buying in bulk is always a logistical nightmare. I once flew somewhere without even a bag but on my return I had 4 suitcases full and I still had to leave some things behind.

When you return to Japan, if you go to Osaka you can find militaria at a store located at Shinsaibashi. It was one of my favorite places when I was there back in the days and got some very nice stuff.

When you visit Osaka ? I am from kobe, near by osaka.
I think you mentioned about "mash" "S and Graf " "Garactaer"etc.
yes, I can get nice staff at the those shops.

but, problem is price of the uniforms...
for example, i' ve gat a my general uniform by only 30$ at the second hand clothing shop in bishikek.
