The reverse side of Hoshinoya postcard
Description
From 1907 to 1917, one third of the space was given for a message to be written. (Previously, no space was allowed for a message.) This post card was made by Hoshinoya firm, which was one of the major postcard companies at that time. The Hoshinoya used star marks as their logo mark because 'hoshi' means 'star' in Japanese.
