A hard black, four character overprint reading 中華民國 Chinese Republic. Complete set of three stamps shown above. These are all of the 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. | ||||||
