May 2021 Postcard, it's Mochi Time
Added 2021-04-30 11:49:44 +0000 UTCThank you for the support! This month's postcard club features Nakatanido in Nara. He moves fast! I also have a special JAPAN POST anniversary stamp celebrating the start during the Meiji Period. These will go out on May 6th from Tokyo Station.
Ideas for June's postcard?
PS: I have a few more Tohoku Shinkansen postcards and that card ends in 16 hours!
PSS: There is an explanation of the stamps history in English on the photos here: https://www.post.japanpost.jp/kitte/collection/archive/2021/0420_01/
