Postcard treasures from Japan Nov 2023
Although seldom seen in the United States, many outstanding airliner cards were issued by Japanese publishers. Kuo-Ching Fu has kindly shared a number of examples from his outstanding collection. First in the set below are cards from a lucky number promotion by Meiji Seika Kaisa Ltd. of Japan. A monthly drawing for prizes was held, which could be claimed by sending in the attached winning numbered tab. Other cards are designated as from Crown, unidentified blank back, and 2 from Tokyo International Airport.
Mario Romano DaSilva has also shared some outstanding Japanese Airport issues and NBC issues, designated with MDS suffix
