    Robert,
    being even older than you are,I know the problem !
    That is why I like engraved stamps so much:
    I can feel the images by touch.

    Werner:

    I like this series too, but it is a complicated one to identify with the different printings. I am trying to put together a set of the Second Peking Printing (1923), but it is slow going as I have so few source for Chinese stamps.

    Don,
    there is one thing I regret most in my "collector-life",that is not
    having started a China-collection,when it was the time to do so.
    I spent my funds on countries like the US,UNO,Germany and
    others = money wasted.
    So I have a small China-collection only.
    I remember my father having bought a packet of chinese kiloware.
    About sixty years ago.It contained pre-war stamps only.
    The 4 and 5 C. Sun-Yat-sen of 1931 and the 8 C. 1938 were
    pre-dominant.But there were also a few "Junks".
    Washing these stamps was an adventure,as the gum was
    jelly-like thick and extremely sticky.
    I was fascinated by these stamps,but unfortunately not enough
    to start a serious China-collection.
    Now I have very few "Junks" and I suppose not one of them is a
    London Printing.
