Is this a Naniwa family portrait?
I've been playing with 6K hones lately, and I've been collecting a few of the oddballs, including the "Yellow Penguin" from JWW. I opened the box and got a couple of surprises, one of which was a familiar-looking group of stamps on the side. These appear to be Naniwa's stamps, and the numbers are clearly in the same typeface. This stone has a Penguin sticker, and the only English on the box is "Penguin Brand" and "Penguin Stone."
In this pic, the 6K is between the Chosera 5K and the SW 8.

The big question is whether this yellow stone is actually made by Naniwa. If so, why don't they market it under their own name?
