This copy was gifted to a Mr. Hellberg at the Kruger National Park in 1973 by members of the Japan Corn Starch Association. It is signed by ten members. Japan Cornstarch was founded in 1867 by Karoku Kurachi and has remained in production for over 150 years. Since its inception there have been five generations of Kurachis as President of the Company. One of the signatures on the front endpaper is by Takeshi Kurachi who doesn't appear to have been a President, but must have undoubtedly been a family member.
