From the “Hongoza” program (Taisho 5), 1916. Japan
Featured in a 1916 (Taishō 5) program for the Hongō-za theater in Tokyo, this elegant graphic design serves as a commercial advertisement for the famous Mitsukoshi Dry Goods Store (Mitsukoshi Gofukuten). Framed by a thin red border, the composition features a delicate, stylized maple branch with vibrant autumn red leaves and a small, light-green songbird perched on a bare twig. On the lower right, poetic marketing copy reads: 今日は芝居 明日は三越 (Kyō wa shibai, ashita wa Mitsukoshi) "Today, the theater; tomorrow, Mitsukoshi." The lower left bears the prominent branding of 三越呉服店 (Mitsukoshi Gofukuten) along with the store's circled emblem (marukoshi). The design brilliantly encapsulates Taishō-era graphic aesthetics, bridging traditional nature imagery (kachō-ga) with modern commercial print design.

Did you know about the 11-meter goddess that's stood in the marble atrium of Mitsukoshi Nihonbashi, Tokyo's oldest department store, since 1960? She has quite the history, having been carved from a single block of wood taken from a 500-year-old tree.

Mitsukoshi Department store poster in 1925 designed by Japanese artist Sugiura Hisui
This iconic promotional poster from 1925 (Taishō 14) is a masterpiece of commercial graphic design by Sugiura Hisui (1891–1965), advertising the expansion and architectural triumph of the historic Mitsukoshi Department Store in Tokyo. The composition is structurally anchored by the towering, white, Western-style facade of the newly rebuilt Mitsukoshi flagship store in Nihonbashi, which rises grandly into an amber-orange sky. The building's landmark Renaissance-style tower, complete with arched windows and crowned by the Japanese national flag flying at its peak, stands as a proud architectural symbol of Tokyo's swift, modern rebirth following the devastating 1923 Great Kantō Earthquake. At the absolute base of the structure, a dense, silhouetted crowd of pedestrians and vintage motorcars creates a bustling street-level horizon, emphasizing the department store as the ultimate hub of fashionable public life. In the foreground, the human subjects perfectly embody the fascinating cultural hybridity of 1925 urban Japan. Dominating the left side of the frame is a stylish, porcelain-skinned woman who bridges traditional and contemporary worlds. She wears a formal, deep navy-blue or black kimono adorned with a dynamic, fluid botanical pattern of scrolling vines and stylized blossoms creeping up the skirt—a design heavily influenced by the Western Art Nouveau movement. Her luxurious, patterned gold obi sash is tightly bound at her torso. Highlighting her elite, modern lifestyle, she sports a fashionable Western-style wave hairstyle, wears crisp white gloves, holds a chic European-style umbrella or parasol in one hand, and dangles a delicate black reticule pouch from the other. Walking beside her is a young girl styled entirely in Western apparel, a hallmark of affluent Taishō-era families.

In 1910, The Mitsukoshi Department Store hired the capable artist Sugiura Hisui to be chief art advertising designer. This 1914 poster by Hisui shows both the influence of a dying Art Nouveau, but a striking foreshadowing of the Art Deco period to come.
This 1914 poster for the Mitsukoshi Department Store by Sugiura Hisui represents a pivotal moment in Japanese graphic design, capturing the shift from the organic flowing lines of Art Nouveau to the geometric precision of Art Deco. The central figure, an angelic woman in a billowing lilac gown, holds a cornucopia and a flaming torch, soaring over a silhouetted skyline that includes the iconic Mitsukoshi building and Mount Fuji. Her massive, stylized wings are detailed with peacock-eye patterns and geometric zig-zags, showcasing Hisui's ability to blend classical Western motifs with a modern, commercial sensibility.

Just got this Honeybee Convertor. The cool thing is the sticker - this was sold at a Mitsukoshi, and assuming those are US dollars, it was likely sold at EPCOT since that's one of only two US locations that ever existed. Anybody remember Famicom games ever being at EPCOT?
