Two covers from 1961 ... and one from 1959. Stamp:Ryukyu: Lion Dance 1.5 c Issued: December 10, 1958 Sc. 55 Stamp:Ryukyu: Trees and Mountains 3c Issued: April 30, 1959 Sc. 56 Stamp:Ryukyu: Yonaguni Moth 3c Issued: July 23, 1959 Sc. 57 Note the difference between the cancelations on these three from the earlier one posted by salentin ... the year has moved from one side to the other. I have other cancellations that show this movement as well. Also, the town is variously in English or in Japanese. Does anyone have an overview of how postmarks evolved in the Ryukus Islands? I see that the Ryukus Specialists Philatelic Society has a number of monographs on the subject but it looks like I need to join to see them. I may have to do that. www.ryukyustamps.org/rpssstore.htm
