Manchukuo 1934 Third Regular Issue - Pagoda

Manchukuo · 1934 · 15 fen

The stamp features a traditional East Asian pagoda or temple building, with the denomination '15 FEN' at the bottom and 'MANCHUKUO' (or similar characters for Manchukuo) at the top. The design is framed by a decorative border.

Manchukuo was a Japanese puppet state established in Northeast China in 1932, existing until 1945. This stamp, issued in 1934, is part of its third regular issue, reflecting the state's attempt to establish its own postal identity during its brief existence.
