Stamp Auction Monday 8 March 2010 Main listing at this link. The following lots are Chinese Peoples' Republic issues of 1965-68, which came to us for sale accompanied by their original small glassine packets in which they had presumable originally been sold. It is though that these were probable brought back from China to the UK in the 1970s, when they were put between the pages of a junior-style world album. We show the packets here simply because not everybody knows what style of packet we mean !
