I suppose I shouldn't wimp out and only post my
answer up in the "Ask the Asker" section. So
here's my answer posted formally.
Here are two of the references, again:

Minoru, thank you very much. After I read Casey's comment about "not (wanting)...a direct translation", I thought I'd add my "two cents". You're right that the translation becomes longer this way, though.

Comment: "Thank you Joe and Minoru. I'm having a hard time choosing this time. However, the Japanese sites referenced contain sloppy English, so I'm hesitant to trust them. Going with Joe's is going to make the translation longer, but otherwise I don't even think "Governor" is necessary. If I didn't have room I'd be tempted to just write "License No. xxxxxx (Osaka). "

I'm not in any position to supply proper references, but here I searched and got a few results of actual representation. I suppose these are related to real estate or travel agencies cases. I have no idea how significant these could be to yous, though. Just a note.

Note from asker:
| Do you have a reference? I'm not interested in a direct translation but an accurate translation. |
| Thank you very much. I'll have a look. If the word for word translation is widely accepted I'm happy to use it. |
| Just another note to thank you for the references. Your answer was helpful, too. I wish I could give points to both answers. |

entirely different.
Here's a better ref.:

the word "Governor". At least stateside, seems to be the convention.
