Hongkong Postcard Set Night 1 (set of 12?)
A set of (they say 12) unused 5-1/8″ x 7″ glossy cards in their original wrapper, unopened. The scan shows what should be the cards, but only 11 views. The 12th must be a mystery. We have cut out a little information from the lower right of the scan, nothing that affects the set. Grade: 1
-

Unopened set of 12 cards whose cover measures about 5-1/2″ x 7-1/4″. Grade: 1

-
Inclusive Arts (set of 4)
This is a set of four cards issued by Hongkong Post as its “Postage Prepaid Picture Card Series No. 49”. All four cards are different; the scan shows just one. In maximum card style (but these are not maximum cards), the pre-printed postage matches the card. We have three unused sets available. One has no postmarks (Grade: 1, $9). One has special first-day-of-issue Inclusive Arts postmarks in the shape of an artist’s pallette (Grade: 1, $14). One has Hong Kong GPO first-day postmarks (Grade: 1, $12).

Ngong Ping Buddha and Wanchai Convention Centre, 3D card in frame
One unused card in a cardboard frame with a push-out stand on the back so it can sit on your desk like a framed photo. Scanning 3D cards clearly isn’t really possible, and here you can see elements of both photos through the lenticular printing. All this is still enclosed in the original plastic wrap, and we deleted the original price in the top corner of the scan. It’s still on the wrapper, though. Grade: 1
-
Star Ferry and Golden Bauhinia 3D card in frame
One unused card in a cardboard frame with a push-out stand on the back so it can sit on your desk like a framed photo. Scanning 3D cards clearly isn’t really possible, and here you can see elements of both photos through the lenticular printing. All this is still enclosed in the original plastic wrap, and we have deleted the original price in the top corner of the scan. It’s still on the wrapper, though. Grade: 1

Hong Kong Vintage Posting Box by Chocolate Rain (set)
It is odd for Hongkong Post to issue something like this, but they did, so we will describe what we have. They are books of postcards, bound into a softcover sets of which you see the cover here. The whole thing measures 5-1/2″ x 9-1/2″ x about 1/4″ and is heavy. Of the 17 pages in each set, 16 are postcards (in the similar style as this photo) and one is a sort of introductory page of the same size, but not a postcard. Hope that’s clear. These are odd. Special postage rate will apply: please ask us. Grade: 1
-
Dinosaur (3D) (set of 6)
This is a set of six different 3D cards, printed on exceptionally heavy stock. What you see in the photo is one card, and one sample reverse: each card has pre-printed postage. We have several different sets. Two sets have the postmark you see in the scan (Grades: 1, US$34). Two sets have a different “GPO” postmark (Grades: 1, US$34). Two sets have no postmark (Grades: 1, US$29).
-
Hong Kong Police insignia being removed
Unused card dating from the handover of Hong Kong from Great Britain to China in 1997. Grade: 1
-
Wishing Tree in Tai Po
You will find older, bigger, or stranger cards than this 5-1/8″ x 7″ example, but you will never find one more colourful. Mailed in 2012 with “Lighthouse” stamp and postmark. The tree, by the way, is now dead — a victim of its own success. Grade: 1
-
Hong Kong Disneyland (set of 3) (3D)
We waited a long time for these, and were not certain they would ever appear. It’s an (unused) set of three 3D cards (lenticular printing) showing stylised Hong Kong scenes. You already know that 3D cards don’t scan very well, but we show the fronts of all three, and the typical reverse of one. In the original packaging. Grade: 1
-
Hong Kong Museums Collection, WU Guanzhong (set of 7)
To be precise, this is Hongkong Post’s “Postage Prepaid Picture Card Series No. 51” and is a set of seven unused cards issued on 17 June 2014; the scan only shows one. We now have five sets available, and all are Grade: 1. One set has no postmarks ($14). Two sets have a first-day “G.P.O.” postmark ($16), and two sets have a special pictorial “Hong Kong Museums Collection” postmark ($18).

Hong Kong Olympic Team 1996 – Women’s sailboard (Mistral)
Unused, Official Souvenir Postcard issued by The Amateur Sports Federation & Olympic Committee of Hong Kong on 29 October 1996. This is Lee Lai Shan (“San San”), a windsurfer until now one of three Olympic medal winners from Hong Kong and the only one to achieve gold. Unaccountably, the card chose not to identify her. But we did. Grade: 1
-
Kai Tak Airport, with ticket cover
Unused card issued by the MTR Corporation (Hong Kong’s mass transit railway) some time before 1998, which is when Kai Tak Airport closed. The area on the front is the sleeve for a souvenir ticket, which is not there now. Only because of that, Grade: 5
-
Hong Kong Airport, Plaza Premium Lounge (set of 3)
Quite a nice way to spend some time in one of the world’s best airports. Set of three unused 5″ x 7″ cards. Grade: 1
-
China Hong Kong SP062 (set of 32) – front cover
This is a set of 32 unused cards, in a cardboard cover. The individual cards as they are shown on the back of the cover appear in scan 20308616B. A few cards in the set are not of Hong Kong. Moreover, the cards do not have captions. This is just a quirky set mostly of Hong Kong but originating from mainland China. We have one other set of the same cards (we think), but the front cover graphic is of a Bruce Lee statue. Each of these sets: Grade: 1
-
China Hong Kong SP062 (set of 32) – back cover
See the description for 20308616A. These are the individual cards as shown on the cover.

Not postally used, with a long message from 1969 written on the back, and black “photo corners” from an album, on two of the four corners. Grade: 5
-
Bubba Gump
Compare with our entry 20308223. This unused card looks similar but the discount offer from this restaurant on Victoria Peak has no expiration date. We don’t suggest trying to redeem it, though. Grade: 1
