5th July 2022: Edo period Writing Box from the Tokyo National Museum, Japan

The Tokyo National Museum was founded in 1872 and is the oldest and largest museum in Japan as well as one of the largest and most visited museums in the World. The museum collects, preserves and displays a comprehensive collection of artwork and cultural objects from Asia with a focus on ancient and medieval Japanese art and Asian art along the Silk Road. It holds about 10% of the works of art and crafts designated as National Treasures.

One of the wonderful Pokemon stamps were used on the card. The Butterfree on the stamp, the postmark and the design on the writing box form a nice combination. 

 Thank You very much Simon!
