1900/1919: Impressive accumulation of the issues of the Japanese Post Office in China in both used and unused as well as a number of unoverprinted stamps with some postmark interest. The collection begins with a complete set of the 1900 series unused. We also noted some later blocks of four, including a corner marginal block of the 1906 1 1/2 s lilac, as well as a 10s blue with marginal inscription. A very worthwhile lot.
