A Japanese brochure/wall chart featuring the Yashica ML/DX lens range in the late 1970s/early 1980s found on the internet:

OK - technically not Yashica but many are Yashica compatible for C/Y mount users: some of my favourite things...
A small section of a large Zeiss poster. |

You are not far wrong!
it's a very late brochure as the TVS-Digital is present but the C/Y lens selection is distinctly limited, even allowing for the 200 f2 and 600 f4 tucked away at the back. There are none of the f1.2 Planars, the widest lens is the 21mm and the zooms are a tad restricted too... yet the full range of C645 lenses is present, including the monstrous 300 f4.
I wonder what their selection criteria were?

I'm not sure if this is a novelty or a brochure but I'm very excited to have just bought it on Ebay:
It's a 41 page folio-sized booklet on the TL Electro X system with some superb graphics. I should receive it on Wednesday and I'll report back. If I can scan some of the pages without damaging the spine, I will upload some piccies shortly. |

Wow! This is a fabulous brochure - it has some gate-fold pages one of which folds out to beyond A3 and is in clear acetate with some superb colour illustrations and white text - very difficult to scan on an A4 scanner! There are some superb pages featuring each of the DX lenses and one of Japan's leading photographers with some photos taken by then with the Yashica gear, including a very charming photo of a topless model that we probably can't post on the Forum... 
I've appended the contents page and 2 sample pages to give you an idea of the quality of the publication. There is also a very useful loose sheet tucked into the cover which details all the compatible lenses and also gives a hint as to for whom this brochure was intended - buyers of the TL Electro-X with the Auto Yashinon 55mm f1.2 lens.
