This is a striking, blue overprint in what looks like seal script characters reading Chinese Post Office. These are the only stamps known for this village. |
||||||||
These stamps have been identified by using Volume II of the Stamp Catalogue of China by Shui-Hon Chan and the four booklet guide The Local Overprinted Stamps of Manchuria 1945-7 by Allen D Kerr (published 1978 and now out of print). Both works are essential for anyone delving seriously into this subject. | ||||||||
