Sumo Ozeki Aonishiki Arata Hand-Signed Shikishi with Red Tegata (Handprint) - Ajigawa Stable - Fastest Ozeki Promotion in Modern Sumo History [ Archive Selection ] 100% Authentic / Shipped from Japan
A remarkable piece of contemporary sumo history, capturing the record-breaking rise of one of the sport\'s most talked-about rikishi. Curated for its rarity and timely significance.
Condition Description
This gold-leaf trimmed shikishi (autograph board) is hand-signed by Ozeki Aonishiki Arata (安青錦 新大) of Ajigawa stable (安治川部屋), featuring his bold brush-written shikona in sumi ink alongside a vivid red tegata (handprint) and his official red name seal. A second red seal in the upper right reads \"大関\" (Ozeki), marking his rank at the time of signing. Aonishiki — born Danylo Yavhusishyn in Vinnytsia, Ukraine — was promoted to Ozeki in November 2025 after just 14 tournaments from his debut, the fastest promotion since the six-tournament system began in 1958, surpassing Kotooshu\'s long-standing record. Ink and handprint remain vivid; board shows light handling wear consistent with careful storage.
