Isoroku Yamamoto Photograph Signed in German and Japanese (1938) Marshal Admiral of the Imperial Japanese Navy and the commander-in-chief of the Combined Fleet during World War II, known for orchestrating the attack on Pearl Harbor; he was killed in action in April 1943 after American code breakers identified his flight plans. Remarkable vintage matte-finish 4 x 6 portrait photo of Vice Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto seated in his military uniform and surrounded by his family, affixed to the original 7 x 10.75 presentation mount, which is signed and inscribed in fountain pen in both Japanese and German, dated September 2, 1938. In fine condition, with a small stray ink mark on the mount. Yamamoto presented this photo to the German anthropologist Kurt Stülpner (1901-1980), who researched the death cults of Madagascar (1929) and worked at the Saxon State Research Institute of Anthropology, where the racial politics of the Third Reich was underpinned and developed. In 1935 he received a call from Japan, allied with Germany and Mussolini's Italy, to teach German language and culture at the Fukuoka Prefectural Shuyukan High School, an elite school where the teaching language was English. In July the German anthropologist left with his young wife for Japan on the steamer Bremen, and left Japan in September 1938, after having received this photo.
