*As shown in the last photo, I am also listing many other sake cups from my grandfather's collection. Please take a look. All are antique pieces.

The price of 3,800 yen in the Showa 40s (1965-1974) is equivalent to approximately 38,000 yen in today's value. This calculation considers price movements based on the corporate goods price index and the consumer price index. (Considering it's about 10 times, it can be said that it was expensive at the time.)
