Chinese Festivals (Hong Kong) (set)
Hong Kong Post issued these sets of four cards in 2012. Each set commemorates a different festival: Tuen Ng (Dragon Boat), The Birthday of the Buddha, Kwun Yum, and Tin Hau. Each card has pre-printed airmail postage corresponding to the card’s design, good for anywhere in the world. We have four unused sets available, all in their original cello-wrap, and here is how they are different from each other: Two sets have no postmarks (Grades: 1, $22). One set has a special “Hong Kong Philatelic Bureau” postmark on each card, with date of issue (Grade: 1, $28). One set has a special “Hong Kong Festivals” postmark, also on each card and also with date of issue (Grade: 1, $28).

Code: 32400276

The “Maine and Missouri” off Fort Scammel, Portland (Maine, USA)
The front of this card is OK but the reverse had been pasted into an album and disqualifies the card as anything other than Grade: 5

Code: 32400277
Price: $0.50
The Grand View of Hong Kong Harbour
Something fishy about the photo on this unused 5″ x 6-7/8″ card, but we will just focus on the red-sailed batwing junk (we hardly see these any more) and the two Star Ferry vessels (also an endangered species in their present format). Grade: 1

Code: 32400278
Price: $3.00

Code: 32400281
Price: $3.00
M.V. Prince Nova (Canada)
Lots of bilingual detail about the ferry vessel on this unused Plastichrome card P68702, but nothing about the lighthouse. We think the photo location may be Prince Edward Island. Grade: 1

Price: $2.00

Unused, aging Dexter Press card 69386-B. Grade: 2

Price: $4.00
Milwaukee, and lighthouse
Here’s what we know for sure about this postcard: unused, real-photo. The reverse says “Photo Post Card” and “Kodak Paper” at the stamp area. Someone has pencilled “Repro” under the original price. We’re guessing. Grade: 2

Code: 32400284
Price: $2.00
Rowboat (Finland)
Nice, uncaptioned Finnish card of a somewhat un-Finnish scene. Mailed in 2012 with a Moomin stamp and postmark, and Priority label and a small Finnish flag sticker affixed. Grade: 3

Yacht Harbor, Oceanside (California)
We’ve been here many times over many years but it has never looked this empty–so we know this is an older card, unused Curteichcolor 4DK-1382 (and D.615). Grade: 1

Code: 32400289
Price: $2.00
Huron Light Ship (Michigan, USA)

Code: 32400290
Price: $4.00
Ticonderoga and Colchester Reef Lighthouse, Shelburne (Vermont, USA)
There’s a lot in this unused Mike Roberts card C8364 (and VT772). Best just to quote the caption: “Famous sidewheeler Ticonderoga and Colchester Reef Lighthouse both brought from Lake Champlain to Shelburne Museum”. Maybe the Ticonderoga brought the lighthouse? Grade: 1

Code: 32400291
Price: $4.00
Wisconsin Dells, Signal Point and Winnebago Indians (USA)
Unused “local” card, aging somewhat. Grade: 2

Code: 32400294
Price: $1.00
Carthaginian (Lahaina, Hawaii)
A lot going on in this otherwise placid Nani Li’i Natural Color Card S-523: did you know that Lahaina, Maui, was once Capital of the Hawaiian Islands? The ship Carthaginian is berthed near the Lighthouse in front of the Pioneer Inn. Card dates from sometime after 1951. We don’t know how much, if any, of this area survived the wildfires of August 2023. Grade: 1

Code: 32400295
Price: $14.00
Geneve, Vue generale (Switzerland)
Mailed in 1959 with two different stamps, postmark, and blue trilingual Luftpost sticker. Serrated edges. Grade: 2

Code: 32400297
Price: $3.00
Konstanz am Bodensee (Germany)
There’s quite a long (and old) story connected with this statue, but she’s Imperia, a prostitute. For details, there’s always Wikipedia! The card was mailed from Switzerland (not Germany) in 2012, with two different stamps, and postmark and A Priority label. Grade: 3

Code: 32400298
Price: $3.00
Kyongju Tokyu Hotel (South Korea)
Unused card, not at all new, and unevenly aged. Nice boat, though! Grade: 3

Code: 32400299
Price: $3.00
Diaoyu Islands (set)
The scan shows two of the four cards in each set, printed in 2012 and issued by the Action Committee for Defending the Diaoyu Islands. The other two cards show persons with flags landing on the islands, and a horizon view of one island. For a number of reasons, and we hope you can guess why, we suggest you do your own research into the background of this sensitive issue. Three sets are available. Grades: 1

Code: 32400300
Price: $16.00

Code: 32400302T
Price: $4.00
Lantau, Tai O (Hong Kong)

Code: 32400303
Price: $4.00
