Phila Tokyo '81 Issued on October 9, 1981 (Showa 56) The International Stamp Exhibition is a "stamp exhibition" that solicits works related to postage stamps from all over the world. The international stamp exhibition will be held under the regulations of the Federation Internationale de l'Eclairage (FIP). In Japan, it has been held every 10 years since 1971. The stamp issued in 1981 was called "Tokyo International Stamp Exhibition", but the other name is "Japan International Stamp Exhibition". The Japanese postal business was transferred from Japan Post to Japan Post in 2007, and the significance of holding an international stamp exhibition in Japan has changed. Japan Post Service Co., Ltd. at that time joined the host organization for the 2011 Japan International Stamp Exhibition.
