Tissue boxes exist all over the world as a standard dispenser of nose-blowey heaven. Many a sick person may be observed hugging these mohawk-sporting oblong objects – or with them sitting close by, anyway.

Itano Shikou Inc, who had a booth at the Premium Incentives Show, helps disrupt this rather dismal image. They make cardboard papercraft covers for the ubiquitous tissue box in a variety of visages, geared mainly toward car dealerships and other automobile-related businesses, such as delivery services.

This, I believe I can safely say, is very representative of Japanese ingenuity and… humor, maybe!
