Artwork Code:	9568-Kawase_Hasui
Notes:	Rarely seen. This is a rare machine-printed version of the woodblock print designed by Hasui and published by Watanabe Shozaburo. I suspect the post office sold out of the woodblock printed FDCs and had to re-issue it in this form. As a bonus you will also receive the 1959 "International Air Transport Association, 15th Congress Commemoration" FDC. See the article at Hanga Gallery for an overview of Hasui's first day covers.
