The Rare and Unissued Flying Geese Without Value
1949 Dah Tung Print, Flying Geese in bluish green, without value, unused without gum and with right margins showing the imprint. Centred a little low as usual and with good perforations all round; there is a very light vertical bend which does not detract from this important stamp. This is a stunning example of this great rarity of Chinese philately and is most probably the finest example of the six recorded in private hands. A magnificent stamp for the connoisseur. Photo
