Red Cross & Community Chest Fund Issued on October 1, 1948 (Showa 23) In October 1948 (Showa 23), the Ministry of Communications issued two types of stamps and one type of small sheet in connection with the community chest and the Japanese Red Cross fund raising campaign. The Red Cross stamp was talked about that the nurse's face looked like a Westerner. Since these are fund-raising stamps, they were issued with a donation of 2.5 yen for each of 5 yen.
