    I don't play Go much anymore (Weiqi in Chinese, Baduk in Korean) but found a few Korean and Chinese stamps on the game. Some years ago I saw an article in Go World magazine noting some Go stamps from Japan but, alas, I am at a loss to find them.

    I *think* the magazine was late 70s-late 80s. Any Japan or World gurus who know the stamps I am after?

    Arigato!

    Hello Molokai, the only "go" stamps that I can offer is the 1994 International Letter Writing Week FDC set as shown below.

    Thank you, James! That may very well be them; in any event, new to me.:happy:

    As you get old, dates and timelines get scrambled some...
