First off sorry if any are sideways I'm trying
Ok so This is my reference to Kwangi

These are my comparisons


This is my reference to kisngai
Just cause I miss read and confused
It with kwangi


These are my comparisons




I like to shoot for the stars
I find more people will throw stones
Of knowledge
And what's the worst that can happen
The stone ends it quickly
My 1935 book doesn't match up
So again yes I need a new book
That's why I ask
Could be nothing but I can only assume attention
To detail is key in identifying small pieces of paper with ink on it lol

And I didn't do that right lmao
Any one notice I put kwangai instead of Kwangsi
Kwangai looks nothing like it
Just a spelling error
I hope it's the only error lol

percyjgp, thanks for the correction. I think 532 e20 (Kiangsi) could be the candidate.

Look at the 2. It doesn't match the Kiangsi 2. Eastern Szechuan is another option and the chinese characters look similar to Kiangsi and the 2 looks closer to Kwangsi.

Sometimes it's tough, but I usually concentrate on the numbers. Size and shape of the numbers tends to be unique to the location of the overprints. The other characters I usually use if I can't decide between 2 of them as I have seen enough variation in print quality to only use them as a second verification to verify my opinion when there is a unique difference from the others.
