Reopening of Private Trade Issued on August 15, 1947 (Showa 22)

Reopening of Private Trade Issued on August 15, 1947 (Showa 22) In August 1947, GHQ (Occupation Forces) ordered the resumption of private trade abroad. This stamp is very interesting for understanding the products for export in Japan at that time. 1.2 yen stamps include folding fans, table clocks, rakes, guitars, toy dolls, Cameras are designed, and 4-yen stamps include tea sets, desk lamps, textiles, cut glasses, necklaces, etc. There is a big difference from the current export products.
