The story of Hayashi

The Japanese toy manufacturer Hayashi is identified in a specialist directory by its delivery-van models and a distinctive H trademark: the letter sits within a diamond formed by four arrows. The entry does not give dates, a production location, or a named founder, and records no further chronology.
