This is a complete set of two values. The surcharge is feint, soft black and hard to read. This town is not recognised by Chan.

These are all the stamps known for this town.

 
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.
