Your pictures are only thumbnails again; they need to be much bigger.

I don't think the insulator company and the glass company are the same thing.

It actually wouldn't surprise me if the insulator and the glass was exported by OTK. If it was an export company they would have exported many things besides just glass.

The insulator company (Osaka Togyo Kaisha Ltd) actually appears to have made insulators.
