  • Pine Mushroom

    Unused card of Tricholoma matsutake, captioned briefly in Korean and English, with a very large pre-printed postage of similar design.  Matsutake is the common name for a highly sought-after mycorrhizal mushroom that grows in Asia, Europe, and North America. It is prized in Japanese, Korean, and Chinese cuisine for its distinct spicy-aromatic odor.  Not to mention its shape.  Grade: 1

  • Map of the land of Rose of Sharon, symbolic of Korean tiger

    Unusual design, and the tiger is, indeed, a stylized image of a map of North Korea.  For the fuller story, you should use a search engine, because somehow it gets more complicated than we have time to describe.  Three of these unused cards are available.  They have very large, coloured pre-printed postage of the same style, and are captioned in Korean and English.  Grades: 1

  • Mt Chilbo and Ullim Falls (semi-maximum cards) (set of 2)

    We call these “semi-maximum” because the stamps on the respective fronts of these 2017 postcards are large and frankly beautiful, but they are uncancelled.  Captioned in Korean and English on the reverses, and no additional postage printed there.  Grades: 1

  • Fine Arts Works (semi-Maximum)(set of 4)

    First, the title for this set was assigned by DPRK, not by us.  Second, we call them “semi-Maximum” because they lack postmarks.  This unused set of four cards unusually has bilingual Korean/English captions to explain the legends on the front, as for example “Let us attain the grain production goal without fail by expanding the area of land under two-crop farming!”  Indeed.  Grade: 1
