Description: This is the third set, Collection 3, from a group of three woodblock-printed postcards housed in a sleeve case. It includes an English note about Japanese woodcut prints, suggesting that it was produced for the overseas market. The set features artwork by three artists: Yamakawa Shuho, Fukuda Toyoshiro, and Noguchi Kenjiro. Issued by the Ministry of Transportation and printed by Kyoto Hanga-in, it was released around 1945. The woodblock prints are delicately executed and in good condition, with the colors beautifully preserved.
