Japanese iron advertisements

I'm going through my stored photos looking for items that might be of interest. Maybe 30 years ago, I would get written material from Sumitomo Steel of Japan, and the corporation also sent these two items. The tsuba with the crane I think was copied from an original, but this one is cast and has a Sumitomo ad on the back. The doughnut shaped piece is a Japanese sleigh bell and has a little iron piece inside for a "clapper." I has a nice ring.
