Nippon Post Torii Gate of the Itsukushima Shrine

NIPPON POST on 35.5 (5 May 35th year of Showa era or 1960) issued the third stamp version of the iconic "floating" Torii Gate of the Itsukushima Shrine on Miyajima Island. Designers were Kimura Masaru and Kurakichi Kato. 

The postcard quite possibly is from the 1950s.
