Items include scaled-down versions of folding screens for "Oku-no-hosomichi" illustrated by Buson Yosa and "Fujin-Raijin-zu," or Wind God and Thunder God, which has been designated as a Japanese National Treasure, a fan with a print of "Choju-jinbutsu-giga," or Animal-person Caricatures, picture scrolls and so on. The company has also expanded the section for postcards, their leading product.
