Manchurian Local Overprints 1945 - 1947

         
   

Chan Lan Tun
(Heilungkiang)


 

   

         
 

This is a bold wooden chop, hand-stamped in black, part of a set of twelve stamps - very easy to confuse the 10f with Chan Chung.

 
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.
