Scenary stamps 2 Showa White Paper Issued on 1937 (Showa12)

Scenary stamps 2 Showa White Paper Issued on 1937 (Showa12) From May to June 1937, a new edition of the 1937 Showa stamp was issued as a landscape stamp. By the way, until the "landscape stamp" was issued, Japanese stamps designed complicated patterns and people to prevent counterfeiting. However, since the Ministry of Communications first adopted Mt. Fuji and castles from the front for Japanese stamps and designed typical landscapes of Japan, these stamps are called "landscape stamps".
