The Yamasa company has a rich history that spans centuries in which it was a premier producer of soy sauce. The company was founded in 1645, but was not incorporated until 1928. Today, their products are sold all over the world, including in the United States. As you can see, the front depicts a baseball player with a Yamasa logo on his jersey using a bottle of Yamasa Soy Sauce as a bat. The back of the card describes the item as a "lottery ticket" that could be sent to the company for redemption. Prizes ranged from cameras to pencils. This is only the second example that we have ever encountered.
