Manchukuo Pagoda and Temple
Manchukuo · 1934 · 5 Fen
The stamp features a traditional East Asian multi-tiered building, possibly a pagoda or temple, set against a plain background. The denomination '伍分' (5 Fen) is prominently displayed at the bottom.
Issued by Manchukuo, a Japanese puppet state established in Northeast China, this stamp is part of its 'Third Regular Issue'. It reflects the state's attempt to establish its own identity through postal services during its controversial existence from 1932 to 1945.
