Japan Post announced the design of New Year's postcard for 2019, 30th. Sell donation-bearing postcards to both tournaments where the official mascots of the Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games "Militeau" and "Sometime" are drawn. For the prize of the Otomachi lottery, prepare an invitation to the Tokyo Olympics.
There are three types of New Year's postcards handling mascots, which sells 41.4 million cards in total. Both are 67 yen higher than normal 62 yen, and 5 yen will be donation to the management etc. of the convention. Sales are to start on October 1, one month earlier than other New Year's postcards, and I'd like to stop the "New Year's card" away from young people. 19 types of New Year's postcards of "regional version" that depicts mascots etc throughout the country are issued.
In addition to the invitation to the Olympic Games, the prize of the Otsukama lottery will raise the cash of 1, etc. from the previous year's 100,000 yen to 300,000 yen. The drawing will be on January 20 next year. (Shinya Tokushima)
