Who's else got a Genuine Japanese Keychain?

Besides the rice paddy debris in the deepest of corners, what other things clue you into the authenticity of your Yanmar?

I could just picture the guy that put this keychain on. Any chance someone knows what it says?

I got one with a rice cutter attached as a key fob.

Wax on--Wax off. From the looks of the paint, maybe not. That is pretty neat looking though. Are those little bells on the bottom?

I wish I could speak Japanese. My keychain had the mans name and phone number on it. I also had a golf ball in the tool box.

Neat stories. A name and phone number? man, I'd be tempted to call for some tractor history info. Of course you'd need a translator and all...

BTDT, ribbing on my paint... man cut it some slack. It is over 20 years old and worked for a living. Actually, it looks pretty nice when you see the whole tractor.

This is to much !!
I have collected them for 10 years now and have 2 coffee cans full.
It seems that they like disneyland key chains more than anything.

Also most of them have little bells attached, one had a bug in a plastic ice cube.

coffee cans in the tool boxes,knives,gloves ect...

I scrapped out a 5 gal. bucket of their rusty wreches,I keep the shiny ones

I guess im not the only one

I spoke with a japanese friend that mentioned that the bells are for good luck.

No bells on mine. I guess if was good luck they would have kept it.
