bearing three stamps totaling 5 sen postage, the front shows a U.S. military postal censorship mark (CP handstamp) and the Osaka Central transit postmark dated “21.1.28,” while the reverse bears a handwritten posting date of September 29, Showa 20. This card represents an officially transmitted item that reached Japan through the postal system, not privately carried mail. Taking about four months to arrive from Taipei to Osaka, it illustrates that although postal routes between Taiwan and Japan were largely disrupted in the immediate postwar period, limited military correspondence still occurred. From Japan’s surrender on August 15, 1945, until the following spring, nearly no foreign mail was dispatched from Taiwan; thus, a correctly franked example showing U.S. censorship is extremely rare, an important artifact documenting Taiwan’s early postwar postal restoration and military communication history.
