Asian art dealer and merchant Yatsuhashi Harumichi (1886- 1982) was਍ഀ born in Tano, Japan, on December 15, 1886. Upon completion of his studies in਍ഀ Osaka, Mr. Yatsuhashi secured employment in the Osaka office of the prestigious਍ഀ Asian antiquities firm, Yamanaka & Company. (For more information about਍ഀ Yamanaka & Company, please see: Lawton, T. (1995). Yamanaka Sadajiro:਍ഀ Advocate for Asian art. Orientations, 26 (1),਍ഀ 80-93.) In 1907 he joined Yamanka & Company's branch office in Boston,਍ഀ Massachusetts, as its general manager and treasurer of the company's Asian਍ഀ division. Located at 424 Boylston Street, the store was a center for Chinese਍ഀ art, as well as for Japanese assorted goods.

In 1913 Yatsuhashi married Shigeki. They produced two sons (Michio and਍ഀ Masao) and two daughters (Sumiko and Kukiye). (Harumichi Yatsuhashi, Oriental਍ഀ art authority and Brookline resident. (1982 December 3).਍ഀ The Boston Globe, obituaries.)

Following the United States' entrance into World War II, the Alien਍ഀ Property Custodian seized the Yamanaka shops in New York, Boston, and Chicago.਍ഀ The holdings were sold at auction in May and June, 1944. In 1945, Yatsuhashi਍ഀ Harumichi and his son Michio opened their own Asian art dealership at 420਍ഀ Boylston Street in Boston.

Yatsuhashi Harumichi fostered exchange between his native and adopted਍ഀ homelands. He was a member and officer (president in 1931) of the Japan Society਍ഀ of Boston beginning in 1921, an avid supporter of the Boston Marathon, and a founder਍ഀ of the Boston-Kyoto Sister City Foundation. (Boston਍ഀ Globe, 1982 December 4. )

Michio Yatsuhashi, who helped his father open the Yatsuhashi antique਍ഀ shop, died prematurely of cancer in 1981. One year later, Mr.਍ഀ Yatsuhashi died in Boston at the age of 96. He was survived by his daughters,਍ഀ Sumiko and Kikuye and one son, Masao.
