"The Japanese kanban, literally "signboard," is a folk art all its
own. Its
function - as a symbol and a service - maximized the traditional arts
of
carpentry, calligraphy, and often of wood-carving and painting as
well. The
appeal of these signs is not only as bold and ingenious graphic
design, but
also as record of the commerce and tastes of the merchant classes in
the
Edo and Meiji Periods."
