Some WWII soldier must have brought it back from points unknown after serving his time in the Pacific Theater.

Odd that it has English writing on it though.

Wanted ad: "Probably an older crappy machine with a metal body might be the best for this. Not sure what any of those are worth, but I have seen them for free on here."
