Goodbye Hong Kong (Set of 30)

-

-
Dreaming (Set)
This is a wrapped set of several (20+?) Chinese-style painting cards. Sorry, can’t be more specific because we don’t want to disturb the wrapper. The cover photo gives you the idea. Grade: 1
-
Police Museum (Set of 5)
Our scan shows four of the five cards in this unused set. The fifth is called “Heritage Trail”, is in a similar style, and shows variously related police items. The set comes directly from this out-of-the-way museum stuck on a hill near Victoria Peak. Grade: 1

-
Hong Kong as China saw it (Set of 10)
What makes this 1990s set of ten unused cards particularly interesting is that it was bought in Beijing, and on sale for domestic consumption there. At the time, ordinary Chinese could not travel freely to Hong Kong. Not to say they only got their clues from postcards, but here you are. It’s wrapped in cardboard (pictured) and all cards are unused. Grade: 1
-
Hong Kong-style Milk Tea Making Technique (Set of 4)
Although issued by Hongkong Post in 2023 under the umbrella of “Intangible Cultural Heritage” (seems quite tangible to us), these sets were not made available to the general public. To get the set, customers needed to place a stamp order above a certain price for the Local Standing Order Service. We did that and we got — one set. Here it is. Unused. Grade: 1
-
Cultural Landmarks in Hong Kong (Set of 6)
Issued by Hongkong Post in 2023, unusually without any reference number of their own, this is a set of six cards showing, of course, cultural landmarks: the Cultural Centre, Xiqu Centre, City Hall, the Palace Museum, the Museum of Art, and another exhibition venue, M+. We have two sets. One is normal, unstamped and unused postcards (Grade: 1, $16) and the other has the same cards prepared in almost perfect maximum-card style where the stamps are close enough to the cards’ designs and the cancellations identical for all cards (Grade: 1, $24).
-

Postage Prepaid Picture Card Series No. 72, with coloured pre-printed global airmail, and special philatelic postmarks from the October 2023 date of issue.

-
Cheung Chau Bun Festival (Set of 6)
Issued by Hongkong Post in 2024, this set of six unused cards was not made readily available to the general public. We could only get it indirectly by application and purchase of other products up to a minimum value. The six cards, identically captioned as “‘Intangible Cultural Heritage – Cheung Chau Jiao Festival’ Special Stamps” on the back in English and Chinese, show various aspects of this colourful annual event that draws many thousands of spectators. There is something particularly special about the single card (representing all six) we show you here: for that story, see our entry 203081091B. The set also comes together with a sturdy 5-1/2″ x 8″ white plastic stand-up frame so you can display any of the individual cards. It’s unusual, and rare. Grade: 1
-
Hong Kong Disneyland – Chip & Dale HK Heritage (Set of 8)
The local Disney group in Hong Kong made these quite difficult to get. It was worth the effort. Our scan shows the front and back cardboard covers of a set with eight cards (unused, still sealed) focusing on local Hong Kong themes. The original price sticker is still on the back of the cover but we’ve wiped out part of that in the scan so as not to confuse you. The set: Grade: 1
-
Paris 2024, Team Hong Kong, China (Set of 4)
Our scan shows one of four unused cards in this set issued by Hongkong Post just as the Games started. The four sports represented are fencing, swimming, table tennis, and cycling; the principals on each card have a holographic effect. What makes these cards more special is that they were issued along with stamps (not included here) of the Games, but the postcards were not made available to the general public unless we subscribed to the annual stamp plan, for a hefty amount — which we did, so we could get the cards, We do not see the logic behind this, as they would have generated good revenue otherwise, but as people say, it is what it is. Grade: 1
-
Hong Kong Disneyland, Government Picture Card Series No. 76 (Set of 8)
The explanation needs to be long, and the set needs to be a bit expensive. In 2024, Hongkong Post issued this set of eight “Postage Prepaid Picture Card Series No. 76”, printed with stamp replicas good for global posting. Our scan shows you how our (unopened) sets look, front and back, with original price on the outer wrap removed so as not to confuse anyone. We have one set with no postmark; one with a Philatelic Bureau postmark; two sets with a mouse ears postmark (in the scan); and one with a more standard GPO postmark. These sets are unopened, so we don’t know precisely what each card shows, but we do assume they will show various characters like variations of what you see here. Make your choice! Really, iconic for Disney card collectors. Each set is Grade: 1.
-
Happy Days in Hong Kong Disneyland (Postcard and Gift Card Set)
We show both sides of this set, still unopened in its original cellowrap. But we’ve cleared out the original price so as not to frighten or confuse you. The orange tape, black text, and price tag are, of course, on the outer wrap and not on what’s inside. Unused. Grade: 1
-
Hong Kong Landscapes – 10 Natural Wonders (Set of 10)
Issued in 2024, this is Hongkong Post’s Postage Prepaid Picture Card Series No. 77, ten cards each with coloured pre-printed postage and a multi-coloured special cancellation. The set is in its original Cello-wrap. Grade: 1

Welcome Giant Pandas (Set of 3)
In December 2024, Hongkong Post issued Postage Prepaid Picture Card Series No. 78, a set of three cards announcing the arrival of two adult pandas from China’s Sichuan Province to Hong Kong’s Ocean Park, where four other pandas (dad, mom, two babies) were already in residence. If unused, these cards had pre-paid postage good for airmail delivery worldwide. We have three sets, each with a different first-day-of-issue cancellation: GPO, Philatelic, or Special. Our scan shows the front and special Philatelic postmark for one of those sets. Your choice. Grade: 1
-
Hong Kong Palace Museum II: Gold “Son of Heaven” Seal (Set of 8)
Issued by Hongkong Post in December 2024, this is Postage Prepaid Picture Card Series No. 79, a set of eight cards with coloured postal imprints and special postmarks, though the cards are otherwise unused. We have not opened the original Cello-wrap packaging, so we don’t know what the other seven cards show. Grade: 1
-
Pearl of the Orient (Set of 14)
“Look at the blue sea and the strong Hong Kong wind”. “Hong Kong’s thousands of lights”. “Pearl of the Orient”. These are some of the Chinese-language legends on the front cover of this set of (we believe) 14 postcards, even though the number “15” also appears on the side. There are 14 thumbnail images on the back cover. The whole thing is unused and sealed shut, so we cannot verify the number of cards. But what makes this special is that the set was produced in China for sale in China to Chinese residents who want to know what Hong Kong is like. Yes, this is a complex issue. Grade: 1
-
Ocean Park, baby pandas (Set of 4)
In 2024, Hong Kong’s Ocean Park welcomed the surprise arrival of twin panda cubs, sending much of eastern Asia into a frenzy to wait for their public unveiling. This did happen in early 2025 and, honestly, the cubs — on display with their mom — are adorable, active, and so photogenic. This set of four cards is a terrific souvenir and comes in a cardboard cover. Our scan shows the back of the cover, and thumbnails of the four cards. The original price sticker is on the cellowrap, not on the cover itself. We have a second set too, with a bit of tape on the cellowrap indicating that we paid for it. This does not affect the postcards. Grade: 1
-
Hong Kong 2025 Definitive Stamps (Set of 4)
Once every few years, Hongkong Post replaces its old set of definitive (everyday) stamps with new designs. The latest change was in March 2025. The set of four urban scenes (including the Convention Centre and Chek Lap Kok Airport) represent four of the new stamps’ values. We have one set of normal, unused, unstamped cards (Grade: 1, $9) and another set of maximum cards with one value per card (Grade: 1, $16).

Victoria Harbour Promenades (Set of 5)
A fanciful title for an official set of five unused cards, Postage Paid Picture Card Series No. 81 from Hongkong Post. Issued in May 2025, we have two sets. One (as you can see in the scan) has a special postmark over the pre-printed postage. The other set has the postage but no postmark. Each set (the price is for one) comes sealed in its original Cello-wrap. Grade: 1
-
Ancient Theatre of Hong Kong (Set of 30?)
This is a set of (unknown number – as many as 30?) unused cards in the original shrink wrap that we’ve not opened. They are certain to reflect Hong Kong’s rich cinematic history nicely. Grade: 1
-
Hullett House restaurants (folio)
An unusual and somewhat odd folio of five card items (three are actually postcards, one is purely advertising, and one is blank on the back) containing high-quality glossy reproduction prints of three old views of what had been in this location; today’s view; and an (expired) coupon for a dinner discount. If you are really keen to know about this, ask us. Grade: 1
-
Man Mo Temple (Set of 4)
These are special. The set of four different unused cards (we only show one here, through the plastic wrap they are provided in) comes directly from the counter in this, Hong Kong Island’s oldest Taoist temple, dating from 1847. If you buy these, you are contributing to the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals that administers the temple. And if you come to Hong Kong, this temple is a must-see. Grades: 1
-
Cheung Chau Bun Festival (Set of 5)
This is a set of five different 5-1/8″ x 7″ unused cards portraying one of Hong Kong’s most famous localized events. The cards are normally only available on Cheung Chau Island during the festival period, which takes place once a year and involves tall steel towers, lots of buns, a midnight race, and then a scramble for the ferry. Grade: 1
