This elegant postal cover, sent from Korea to Japan in the early 1930s, features a 1½ Japanese sen pale blue stamp from the Tazawa "New Die" rotary print series, issued on November 1, 1933. The stamp, part of the definitive series used throughout the Japanese empire, is printed typographically on granite paper with a Type 4 upward-facing wavy-line watermark and perforation 13. Measuring 21 x 26 mm, the stamp’s design incorporates floral motifs and coats of arms, symbolizing both tradition and the state authority of Imperial Japan. This issue, catalogued as Michel JP 112IIC, Scott JP 212, Yvert et Tellier JP 130a, Stanley Gibbons JP 269, and Sakura JP 164, was part of a long-running series used widely across Japan and its occupied territories, including Korea under colonial administration from 1910 to 1945. The cover is beautifully handwritten in brush script, exemplifying formal correspondence style of the period, and bears a clear Japanese-style cancel likely dated to 1934. Condition Very fine used with crisp cancel and complete stamp, neatly addressed and free of major creases. Estimate "$45 – 60".
