Maggut - Meiji Crucifixion shirt

$15.00 - $17.00

Shirt for Goregrind band, Maggut from Japan

The image is of a 25-year-old shop employee named Sokichi. He brought a band of robbers into the shop, and they killed the shop owner and owner's family.

While other robbers were simply beheaded, Sokichi was sentenced crucifixion, because murdering his master was considered as a specially serious crime that deserves the extreme penalty.

The location is reported as taken in Yokohama and was taken before 1907 is all I can find about date it was taken because all it said was "Early Meiji era"

The Kanji underneath translate to "crucifixion"
