  • Hong Kong Property and Banking ad cards (set of six)

    It really is very hard to know what to make of these.  They come from PR China, not Hong Kong, and were issued in 2015 by China Post with pre-printed postage.  The scan shows the fronts of five and reverse of one card.  Now, the lead card in the scan–the one saying “HongKongHomes,” is not showing a picture of Hong Kong.  Some cards have Hong Kong contact numbers; some have PR China numbers; and some have none at all.  Very odd.  We have six of these sets available, all unused.  Grades: 1

  • Liu Haisu (刘海粟)

    Liu Haisu (Chinese: 刘海粟; 16 March 1896 – 7 August 1994) was a prominent twentieth-century Chinese painter and a noted art educator. He excelled in Chinese painting and oil painting.  We cannot tell you as much as we would like about this hardcover folio (measuring 11-1/2″ x 8-3/4″ x 1/2″) because it is still sealed in its original clear wrapping.  We did see a sample copy when we got it, through China Post, and it’s like most of our other folios:  a mixture of postcards, mint stamps, and stamped covers.  Perhaps you can find other details online.    Grade: 1
