Revitalisation of Historic Buildings (set of 6)

Revitalisation of Historic Buildings (set of 6)

We have no other postcards like these.  Issued by Hongkong Post as “Postage Prepaid Picture Card Series No. 48,” including pre-printed airmail postage, each of the six cards shows a different historic building that has been, well, revitalised.  The only convenient way to know what these buildings are is to look at very tiny writing on the pore-printed stamp–not on the front.  However these cards are really THICK and at the front bottom there’s a pull-tab that possibly lets the card stand up on its own, like a picture on a desk.  We’ve not tried.  Maybe this gives more information about the buildings, or maybe not.

We have four sets where the printed postage is not postmarked (Grades: 1, $34); one set where the cards are postmarked with first day of issue special “building blocks” postmark (Grade: 1, $39), and one set using the first day of issue GPO postmark (Grade: 1, $39).
