Accumulation of Mint China Sets and Larger Blocks, 1940s, starting with Scott #s 886-894 issued without gum, in either upper right or left blocks of 100, or lower bottom / top sheet portion of 100 (20 x 5), each showing two plate inscriptions reading "Printed by Dadong Book Company Shanghai Printing Factory", along with a few plate numbers for a few of the blocks. The lot continues with a few sets and multiples from the 1940s, including South China set commemorating the liberation of Guangzhuo in blocks of 10. Online photos show an overview. We note a few faults with a few of the stamps, with the blocks of 100 folded into quarters, still fine to very fine. (Image)
