Manchukuo
|
# 1-18, plus 3 postal stationery cards
|
First Presentation Booklet of 1932 issues, with a complete set of the Manchukuo’s first issue (Scott catalogue as mint stamps $250.00), plus the three postal cards that were issued at the time. Many booklets of this time have the stamps cancelled, but not this version. A bit of minor wear and normal aging from the paper’s acidity. Still a scarce presentation booklet and a great addition to any Chinese or Japanese collection. Includes a 72-page publication produced by the International Society for Japanese Philately (Monograph 9, April 1981), with maps, lists of post offices and other reference material. Estimate =
