Our total description of this item requires four entries–a record for us, so far.

20307408A shows the cover (and also heavy cardboard sleeve) of this hardcover book, measuring 10″ x 14″ x 3/4″.  The four large title characters say “Shining Past,” and the smaller characters at the top say “Red path stamp collection.”  Don’t worry, there are postcards as well in here.  As for the book, it is larger than our scanner, so the full cover is more than what you see here.

20307408B shows the inside front cover of the book, which has seven very heavy pages in all, not including inside front and back covers.  If you can read Chinese, this explains everything.

20307408C shows one sample page (out of five) of sets of Maximum Cards.  In each case, the facing page is a sheet of stamps the same as what you see on the cards (20307408D is another example).  Cards and stamps are not glued in, but rather behind plastic holders or held securely by cardboard like an old photo album would have done.

And, near the front, is one page with one very large stamp highlighted.  Altogether this is a really beautiful item,  among the best of its kind from China Post.  Everything is unused, of course.
