Kerr lists only four values for this set 5f, 20f, 30f and 1Y but two more have since been discovered. The four soft blue characters read 中華民國 Chinese Republic.

Chan recognises the full set of six values in black and the 5f, 20f, 30f, and 1Y in violet and blue, making three sets a total of 14 stamps.

 
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.
