Does the Mt. Fuji summit post office sell unique stamps?

I've researched this question and have been unable to find an answer. I'd like to avoid standing in line to buy stamps for my postcards and will buy the stamps before I climb unless there are stamps at the top that are unique to Mt Fuji and can only be purchased there. I assume it's just the cancellation that's unique.

Thanks for your help.

Not sure...
by: Gary Wolff

To my knowledge, I’m not aware if they have unique traditional rectangular-shaped postage stamps at the Mt. Fuji summit post office.

However, one of the visitors to this website last year shared a postcard she mailed to herself from there. In addition to the usual dated postmark, there is a colorful circular rubber stamp that shows an image of the summit post office plus one of Mt. Fuji, which I assume serves as the postage "stamp."

You can see that postcard here: Is it possible to mail a letter or postcard from the summit of Mt. Fuji?

Perhaps a future visitor to this page will share more details on the kind of stamps at Mt. Fuji's summit post office.
