This is a set of 11 soft black
overprints. The four characters read
中華民國
Chinese Republic.
Note; Sketches by Chan and Kerr are not a good likeness of the above. All of the stamps known for this town are shown above. |

| 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. | ||||||||
