Chuo-ku Machikado Exhibition Hall Tsukikoso Painting Materials Exhibition Hall
Looking at the booklet of the Chuo-ku Machikado Exhibition Hall, there was an article on the last page called "Introduction of Complete Benefits". The content is

After confirming the application destination, we decided to go to collect stamps.
I headed to the Tsukikoso Painting Materials Exhibition Hall, which I had been interested in for a long time.
The Gekkoso trademark has a wide variety of horn cloth sacks.
A large horn is drawn at the entrance of Gekkoso on the first floor. I talked to a woman who was working.
And I saw the wonderful sack of the canvas. There were many sizes of sacks that seemed useful not only to carry art materials but also to carry elongated wines. The horn is also depicted on the sack.
The reason for this is that Horn is a trademark.
In the past, when a nobles in Western Europe hunted, Holon was a musical instrument that sounded to keep in touch with his friends.
In other words, it expresses the feeling of "Friends, gather!", And it means that Holne is still ringing high for those who seek beauty in their lives. It's nice!

I went down to the basement. A picture of Horn is also drawn on the guide to the basement.
The birth of cobalt blue, the first purely domestically produced blue paint
In the explanation below the framed picture, the following was written:
"Celebration Cobalt was born March 1942 (Showa 17)
In 1940 (Showa 15), Gekkoso discovered the first cobalt blue production method in Japan at a home furnace in Unazuki, Toyama Prefecture, where the evacuation site was located. It is the moment when the original purely domestic oil paint made from pigments was born.
This board was given by painters who were pleased with the success of extracting cobalt pigments by Gekkoso, expressing the celebration and joy of achieving their long-cherished wish with illustrations and writing them.
You can see more than 10 names such as Genichiro Inokuma, Kazumasa Nakagawa, and Toshio Nakanishi. Gekkoso Painting Store Collection
A song that Yosano Akiko wrote at the opening banquet.
In the exhibition hall, there are paintings drawn by many artists.
In 1917 (1917), when Hyozo Hashimoto, founded in Shinjuku, became independent.
It was introduced that Yosano Akiko called the founder of the moonlight and loved it, and that tanka poetry gave it to Hanamuke. Please enjoy tanka poetry at the shop.
The shop is located at 8-7-2 on Hanatsubaki-dori, the same as Shiseido Parlour, opposite the Sugawara Building on 7-chome and Taya.
