A 5 Fen stamp from Manchukuo's 1943 Cooperation Issue, featuring a distinctive eight-character overprint in Chinese, reading 'Chinese Post. Temporary Use. Northeast'.

Issued in 1945, this provisional stamp reflects the chaotic period at the end of World War II, as the Nationalist Government began to reassert control over former Manchukuo territories, temporarily utilizing existing stamps with new overprints for the Chinese Post.
