Comprehensive 1885-1949 Mint / Used Collection Mounted or in mounts on album pages are a few hundred different (light duplication in places) stamps with myriad of printings, surcharges & overprints. Better mint stamps shown along with airmails, postage dues and parcel post stamps. Couple fake inverts enclosed. Great lot for studying the printings of 1910s & 1920s and the long series of surcharged and overprinted stamps of the 1930s & 1940s. Mixed condition in places, mainly Fine to Very Fine (Image)

Back-of-Book Collection Mounted or in mounts on leaves and album pages, few hundred mint & used with nice representation of P.R.C. Northeast China, East China, etc. Also excellent run of Occupation overprints, which in our view is the focal point of this lot. Includes Provincial stamps from Taiwan (Formosa) 1945-1949, then from Kwantung to Sinkiang, plus some Local issues and odds & ends. Mixed condition in places, but high percentage being mint (or ungummed as issued) and strong starting point for further specialization. (Image)
