This vintage steel sign features the Japanese words “Yubisashi Koshō” together with a striking blue pointing-hand symbol. The clear combination of red and blue graphics on a white background creates a practical design that can be recognised easily from a distance. “Yubisashi Koshō” refers to the Japanese safety practice of pointing towards an object or indicator while calling out its name or status aloud. This method is widely associated with railway operations and is intended to encourage deliberate visual and verbal confirmation. The sign is the type of railway or workplace safety notice used to remind personnel to perform this checking procedure. Its simple composition of bold Japanese characters and a pointing-hand silhouette gives the piece a strong visual presence. It is an appealing example of vintage Japanese railway equipment and functional industrial graphic design. The distinctive typography and limited colour palette also make it an interesting collectable connected with Japanese railway safety culture. There is almost no visible evidence of use, suggesting that the sign may have been kept in storage for a long period as a spare. There are a few minor marks from storage, but no rust is present. Overall, it remains in very good condition. --- Keywords --- Yubisashi Koshō / Japanese National Railways / Steel Sign / Railway Signage / Vintage --- Shipping --- The item will be shipped from Japan via trackable Japsn Post or Yamato Transport..
