First Day Cover (FDC) of 5 China stamps commemorating 35th Anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China |
This is a jumbo first day card (6" x 9") with five stamps canceled on October 1, 1984 issued for the 35th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, also known as the “Cultural Revolution” (click on it for a jumbo-size image). The four 8-fen stamps, Scott 1944-48, are titled, A Magnificent Picture, A Promising Field, Springtime of Science, and Defend the Motherland, while the 20-fen stamp is called “A Glorious Future.” All of the stamps have typical communist designs. The jumbo card was produced by the Beijing Stamp Company. I was in China during the event and bought the card there; it was not sold outside of China and is extremely scarce today. You can find the individual stamps and standard FDCs, but not this card. Price only $19.95. Ask about my other Chinese and Japanese items. |
