Interesting. Some of those pics looked to me like maybe some of those items are in a museum or lobby somewhere…if so anyone have any idea what city-state or prefecture that might be at?

I delivered firewood to guy a couple years ago and during conversation he stated that he is retired from and advertising agency and a bunch of years ago his company was bidding for a job with kubota and when his company faxed the sample back to Kubota, because of a glitch (which I imagine all of us can remember happening with fax machines, I guess today it is called pixelating), the printout got messed up and came out the way the logo looks today. He said that Kubota liked it and then his company had to scramble to remake it to look like the mixup.

I thought that was interesting but haven't been back to his house to double check the story again. The conversation wasn't about Kubota but when I mentioned I use my tractor to move the wood then he offered up the story.
