Thanks Nigel, I'll re catalogue my example. Another one for interest for the Chinese collectors. A provincial: (rarely seen)  |

rod222, wow! we're getting into some obscure parts of the catalogue now. I've never looked at these listings before... This one appears to be SG NE80 $2 deep violet from Liaoning in North East China, catalogued at a stunning £500 unused £600 used back in 1998. I hope I've identified correctly and it's genuine!  |

Well done Nigel, you have excellent information.  We can all be jealous of that one, I do not own it, it belongs to my virtual stamp album, the image came from an auction catalogue circa 1990 IIRC. At the time of the scan I didn't bother keeping reserve prices, which I now do. |

Gibbons lists the Guizhou parcels stamp as SG SWP7 in the Guizhan section of their South West China listing.
SG lists two versions of the stamp depending on the size of the yuan character: SG SWP7 has this 3mm high and SG SWP7a has this 4mm high.
It says that in a sheet of 200 there were 49 stamps with the large character and 151 with the small character. |

Steve, On the third stamp down, there are two pearly "globulets" springing from the sun, left and right. On the left, underneath the left globulet is a very tiny "C"
This indicates it was printed by the Paicheng Printing Co, Nanping. No Gum P12.5
This differs from other without the "C" printed at Central trust Chungking.
No difference in CV

Sorry I did not in time translate the Chinese character on No.3, right side "½Ú½¨´¢½ð"= economizing for building country postal savings, left "¸ÄÖµÎé½Ç"=corrected value 50 cents. It is a postal savings stamp not listed on Scott Stamp Catalogue.
The basic stamp is as Rod indicated point for point.
This kind of overprint on the stamp was by Zhejiang Province, in low value. |

Great Info Zhang Cheng  we are fortunate to have you here. Good challenging stamps Steve, more Dr. Sun Yat Sen stamps for my database.  Whilst the thread captures our Chinese specialists, I may slip this French Colony stamp in, to attract any comments? "5104" (SHANGHAI) "gros chiffres" cancel unlisted in Maury At the time of the French "Sage" design, cancels abroad were usually CDS's  |

Thanks Rod, but I must clarify I am not the Chinese specialist, only 2 years into stamp world.  |
