A nostalgic fan from my predecessor

A neighbor brought me an old fan.

I'm not sure exactly how old it is, but it's a fan from the generation before last.

The name of the previous owner, "Noba Takayoshi," is written on it.

Were they given out as prizes or promotional material?

Fans from before the 1950s

It's in very good condition,

It must have been tucked away securely in the back.

Takakaen Garden during the Hekikai County era

Looking at the address...

Not Toyota City, but Hekikai County.

This area used to be part of Hekikai County, along with Kariya City and Anjo City.

In 1965, Yoshiwara, Takaoka Town, was incorporated into Toyota City from Hekikai County.

It looks like a fan from before the 1950s.

Call Takaoka at number 14.

It's a number that's hard to imagine now.

This is a fan that makes you feel very nostalgic.

Since we had the chance, we have it on display in our store.

Please take a look if you are interested.
