China Post issued this set of eight connected cards (accordion-style foldout, unused).  It’s unusual for several reasons:  the link; that each card has an actual 80 fen stamp affixed; and that they did not print the date of issue as they almost always do.  Our scan shows the front cardboard cover and one of the eight cards.  Much Chinese text on the cover says that “Bala Village is a quiet and peaceful Tibetan village … like an otherworldly mountain flower blooming in a place isolated from the world”.  (No longer isolated!)  Grade: 1
