We will start with the hard box, measuring about 6″ x 11″ x 2-1/4″.  This is what you see in the scan.  Open the flap, and it unfolds on both sides to reveal an inner box containing another hard but semi-open container in a cardboard sleeve.  Inside this:  a 2″ pile of conjoined postcards, each with pre-printed postage and a large extra connected tab with full explanations of each card–but only in Chinese.  No, we have not extended this long string of cards to its full length to count them.  If you’re interested, please ask.  The cards seem to represent everything that happened in China for those 90 years.  It is impressive.   Grade: 1
