This is the first large-scale compilation of error stamps in the history of Chinese philately.

**Product Features:**

The "Rare Error Stamps" is China's first comprehensive collection of error stamps, supervised and produced by the Chinese Cultural Relics Association. It spans over 70 years of historical imprints, including 102 error stamps and 6 corresponding genuine stamps for comparison, totaling 108 stamps. The content covers multiple fields such as history, military, figures, politics, and science and technology, making it the most complete and extensive collection of error stamps in China to date.

1. **Victory Commemorative Stamp of the Huaihai Campaign:** This stamp was questioned by philatelists and historians after its issuance. Originally, on January 19, 1949, the "People's Daily" published a congratulatory telegram from the Central Government marking the successful conclusion of the Huaihai Campaign. It clearly stated that the campaign began on "November 6th of last year (1948)." However, this stamp incorrectly printed the start date of the Huaihai Campaign as the 9th instead of the 6th.

2. **Revolutionary Holy Land - Tiananmen:** In a set of ordinary stamps issued by China Post in the 1960s featuring the "Tiananmen Gate," the slogans on both sides of the tower were present, but Chairman Mao's portrait in the center was missing.

3. **People's Police of China:** This is the only police-themed stamp set issued by the National Postal Service to date. However, in the second stamp titled "Rapid Response," one of the policemen points forward with his index finger, but shockingly, the image shows six fingers instead of five, a rare mistake in history.

4. **Classical Chinese Novels - Journey to the West:** Sun Wukong is the protagonist of one of China's four great classical literary masterpieces, "Journey to the West." At the beginning of his journey to escort Tang Monk to the Western Heavens, he kills a tiger and makes a skirt out of its skin, which becomes a classic prop for subduing demons. On December 1, 1979, China's postal department issued a set of stamps featuring Sun Wukong, consisting of 8 stamps: Water Curtain Cave, Battle with Nezha, Peach Blossom Garden, Eight Trigram Furnace, Fighting the White Bone Demon, Banana Leaf Fan, Spider Silk Cave, and Journey to the West. Interestingly, except for the last four stamps, in the images of Water Curtain Cave, Battle with Nezha, Peach Blossom Garden, and Eight Trigram Furnace, Sun Wukong, who has not yet embarked on the journey to the Western Heavens and is currently wreaking havoc in Heaven, is depicted wearing the tiger-skin skirt, which is clearly inconsistent with the original plot.

5. **Xu Xiangqian - One of the Ten Marshals of China Full Sheet Error Stamp:** This rare full sheet error stamp is included in the collection. Only 5000 limited edition sets are available, making these scarce error stamps non-reproducible.

The "Rare Error Stamps" collector's album is issued in a limited edition of only 5000 sets due to the difficulty of finding some precious stamps, making them extremely rare. After years of arduous collection by several experts and utilizing the savings of many private collectors, only 5000 sets could be issued, reaching the limit. Compared to the number of philatelists nationwide, this quantity is extremely small. The "Rare Error Stamps" collector's album will undoubtedly set new highs in philatelic collections, bringing surprises to collectors!

**Issue Background**

The "Rare Error Stamps" collector's album was compiled to carry forward China's philatelic culture and showcase the classic history of Chinese stamps. With participation from multiple veteran stamp experts, after years of collection, it was produced under the supervision of the All-China Philatelic Federation and the editorial board of the "China Philately Newspaper," as well as the Certificate Collection Committee of the Chinese Collectors Association. It includes 120 error stamps and 7 corresponding genuine stamps for comparison, totaling 127 stamps. The content covers multiple fields such as history, military, figures, politics, and science and technology, making it the most complete and extensive collection of error stamps in China to date.

Error stamps refer to stamps where errors occur during the design or printing process, whether unnoticed before printing or after printing, and have been officially released by the postal department. Due to their extremely small quantities and often being destroyed, they are among the rarest treasures in philately, highly sought after by collectors. In recent years, the value of error stamps has increased much faster than other stamps.

The "Rare Error Stamps" includes stamps such as: the "Hong Kong Sun Yat-sen Portrait" 5 yuan denomination variant error stamp issued by the old Chinese postal service; the "Victory Commemorative Stamp of the Huaihai Campaign" issued in the liberated areas, which printed the wrong start date of the campaign; the 1950 commemorative stamp marking the signing of the Sino-Soviet Treaty of Friendship, Alliance, and Mutual Assistance, where the Soviet flag's star was painted solid instead of hollow, and the sickle in the Soviet flag was drawn upside down; the 1979 "Journey to the West" stamps, where the first four stamps depict Sun Wukong wearing the tiger-skin skirt even though he had not yet started the journey to the Western Heavens, clearly inconsistent with the original plot...

The "Rare Error Stamps" includes rare stamps from the Republican era, liberated areas, the Cultural Revolution period, and modern versions, spanning over 70 years. The 120 error stamps collected each represent a piece of history and memory. This is the first time 120 error stamps have been compiled into a single collection, making it a significant and rare opportunity. Therefore, the "Rare Error Stamps" is hailed as a milestone in the collection of rare Chinese stamps.

For the first time in the history of Chinese philately, a large-scale collection of error stamps has been compiled into a single album, astonishing collectors:

The collection value rivals national treasures, and the 80 "Gengwu Horse" large sheets are expected to recreate the "Golden Monkey" myth!
