A Collection of Japanese Ephemera from the 1930s and 1940s

Cinderella. A selection of Publicity Stamps and Stickers

The scarcity of some Cinderella stamps, especially those associated with significant historical events or rare advertising campaigns, makes them highly sought after in the philatelic world.
