[SPOILER] Plot Discussion Thread *Spoiler Alert*

[Paddy™]

I was wondering if anyone had any input on this. Throughout the game we find numerous boxes displaying the same label. It's a drawing of a bird with what I assume to be Chinese characters along the left and right edges of the page, with the words "BIRD BRAND" underneath the image. Here it is:

Spoiler below!

I wonder what these boxes contain and if it matters at all to the plot. When I first saw it I assumed it was a Mexican image; the drawing of the bird looks very Central/South American. But then I noticed the Asian characters around the edges. Does anyone here understand those characters and, if so, can you translate them for us?
