This is a full set of 2 overprints in in a hard black. The overprint reads Temporary Use, 北東 North East.

Chan lists a further set of 7 values overprinted 中華民國 Chinese Republic.

Above are the only stamps listed by Kerr 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.
