Monkey long set – Li Yan (cover) (PR China)
At Lunar New Year (February 2016), China Post issued this set of 20 connected postcards, each one measuring 4″ x 9-1/2″, so this entire item when stretched out measures ~190″ or ~480 cm. What you see in this scan is the cover. Scan 39700040B shows parts of two cards. This whole thing is one very long panorama with a monkey theme suitable to the New Year. Each individual card has pre-printed postage and a number showing where the card fits in the sequence (as in 20-1, 20-2, and so on). And each card has a printed separation about two-thirds of the way along the reverse. Anyway, if you would like to see how this works, ask us and we will scan for you. Unused. Grade: 1
