According to the web site of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications
(http://www.mpt.go.jp/pressrelease/japanese/yubin/990617j202.html  in
Japanese),
Japanese post offices will sell "Ghibli ga Ippai" postcard collection,
starting on July 9.

A book of 13 postcards will be sold for 910 yen (70 yen per card).
I believe that the cards include pre-paid postage, which is 50 yen per card,
so this is a good deal.

The cards are:
Nausicaa, Laputa, Totoro, Grave, Kiki, OPP, Porco, Umi, Pompoko, Mimi, OYM,
MH, and Yamada.

It will be sold at the post offices all over Japan. (This is the first time
that MPT will sell a book of postcards all over Japan.)
3260,000 sets will be released.

There are many stamps and postcards collectors in Japan, so if you want to
buy this, you might want to buy it on July 9.
