In this number, the author discusses in detail the other five pieces and also refers to some materials for comparison from slightly later periods which are preserved in other places than the Uesugi Shrine. The first one of the following six specimens owned by the Uesugi Shrine was described in Part I and the other five are treated in this number. 1) Armour underwear of blue ramie with stencil-patterned design used by UESUGI, Kagekatsu (1555-1623). 2) Armour underwear of red crape used by UESUGI, Kagekatsu (Pl. I, fig. 6, 7). This is close in form to the one treated in Part I which is for summer wear. But this is for winter wear and is padded with floss-silk. The outside cloth is red crape of silk and is the oldest extant specimen of crape in Japan. The lining cloth is red ramie. 3) Armour underwear of plain-weave white silk used by UESUGI, Kanenobu (1530–1578) (fig. 8, 9). It is a piece of underwear padded with floss-silk. The white silk is used both for the outside and the lining. 4) Shirt of chiain-mail used by UESUGI, Kanenobu (Pl. II, fig. 10, 11). It is chainmail lined with white ramie and was used as armour underwear. It weighs 3. 9 kg. 5) Cap used by UESUGI, Kanenobu (Pls. III, IV-a, fig. 12). It is made of white silk twill with woven designs of pine, bamboo and plum. The inside circumference measures as long as 70 cm and this fact suggests that this cap was used over the helmet or something similar. 6) Cap of chain-mail used by UESUGI, Kanenobu (Pl. IV-b, fig. 13). It is a kind of underwear for protection and is accompanied by an inner cap. The chain is applied over ramie cloth. Floss-silk is laid over the chain and it is covered by black satin. The black satin is rather badly broken, as may be seen in the plate. The inner cap is made of black satin, the circumference of which is 58 cm. The total weight is 760 g. The following specimens are introduced and discussed for the purpose of comparison. a) Armour underwear of crape with multicolour stencil-patterned design, used by TOKUGAWA, Ieyasu (1542–1616) (Pl. V, fig. 14,15). It is owned by the Tokugawa Reimei. kai Foundation. Judging from its form and other features it seems to be of Ieyasu's late years. b) Armour underwear hemmed with embroidery used by TOKUGAWA, Ieyasu, which is in the Tokyo National Museum (fig. 18). c) Armour underwear of satin used by ODA, Nobunaga (1534–1582) kept in Nagoya Castle (fig. 16). d) Armour underwear of satin used by ODA, Nobunaga, kept in Nagoya Castle (fig. 17).}, pages = {13--28}, title = {上杉家伝来鎧下着・着込み・頭巾等四領二個 下―伝上杉謙信・上杉景勝所用服飾類調査報告 六―}, year = {1974}, yomi = {[神谷栄子・田実栄子]} }
