This is a set of 3
surcharges with a soft black 50f surcharge.
Note; The town is further north and nearer to Mukden than the position indicated by Kerr. These are the only 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. | ||||||
