Communist Party of China 1921-2011 (3D) (Maximum) (set of 6)
This is the outer glossy cardboard cover of a set of six unused, different, genuinely spectacular 3D-effect cards, made of that ridged plastic, and that change their picture as you move them around in your hand. The scans can’t show this, but as an example, item 20307347B (our next entry) is one of the cards. The scan shows hands holding grain in a wind farm, but from other perspectives you can see city skylines and a bullet train. Other cards have cultural, labour, and military themes. And on top of all of that, each card comes stamped with a mint Y1.20 stamp essentially making these Maximum Cards as well. Grade: 1

Yue You Yue Jing Cai (Guangdong tour) (set)
Heavy book inside a heavy, glossy cardboard cover–the unit weighing about one kilo. All text inside the book is in Chinese, with the occasional website in western letters. Why websites? Because each of the 30 main pages (there are more) includes a postcard with pre-printed postage, showing a visitor attraction somewhere in Guangdong Province. Many of these pages also have what look like entry vouchers and descriptions. This is really outstanding, unique, and well worth the price. Grade: 1

Each card has a different musician, identified as Ma Sicong, He Luting, Liu Tianhua, and Xiao Youmei.

90 Years 1921-2011, boxed set
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
