  Set of 3 surcharges. Kerr is not sure about the village name but T'ou-tao-kou seems the most likely. The position of the village is close to Yenki but does not appear on the map.

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.
