China 1941 Sun Yat-sen Definitive with Guangdong Overprint

China · 1941 · 20 fen

A 20 fen Chinese definitive stamp featuring a portrait of Sun Yat-sen, overprinted in red with '廣東' (Guangdong) and '限省貼用' (for use within the province only).

Issued during the Sino-Japanese War, this regional overprint indicates the stamp was intended for use specifically within Guangdong province, likely due to wartime postal regulations or currency variations.
