Showa Unwmkd Stamps Issued on 1951 (Showa26)-1952 (Showa27)

Showa Unwmkd Stamps Issued on 1951 (Showa 26) - 1952 (Showa 27) In 1950 (Showa 25), due to improvements in printing technology, all stamps issued after November had their watermarks abolished to prevent counterfeiting. As a result,eight types of industrial design stamps and two types of stamps before that (4 yen, 10 yen) were issued on blank paper without watermarks. However, these have become obsolete due to the rapid changes of the times after the war. Therefore, it was released for a short period of time at the same time as the "First Animal and Plant Stamp" issued in 1951.
