The stamp features a central depiction of the White Pagoda of Liaoyang, a prominent multi-tiered Buddhist stupa. The design is stark, with the pagoda rendered in dark tones against a lighter background, framed by the country name and denomination.
Issued by Manchukuo, a Japanese puppet state established in Northeast China, this stamp reflects the regime's efforts to establish its own postal identity.
