Japanese what is it? Coming up in a auction

[Patrick Chadwick]

I think the ??? symbol could be kanji 956 "ei" = long

No, cancel that. It is kanji 367 "kori" or "hyo", both with the sense of "ice".

"pure" "ice" "room" - I'm beginning to get the feeling that this is simply an advertising banner for an ice-cream parlor!

And the last one, top right, is (in sloppy handwriting) kanji 338 "yo" = good

So we now have on the flag

PURE..........................................GOOD

....................ICE.....................

TOP RANGE/CLASS ICE ROOM


A hand-painted banner for an ice parlor!

Any alternative suggestions?

IMOH, Sudoku is a lot easier than deciphering hand-written Japanese!
