CN-P1

A card printed by Shanghai City Post Office. It shows a part of The Bund in Shanghai City (上海外滩). It is within the former Shanghai International Settlement (上海公共租界). Buildings shown here with their historical names are the HSBC Building (from left to right), the Custom House and the Bank of Communications Buildings. The revenue from the postcard selling would channel into a city fund for brave people. Thanks AnnHuang of Taiwan.
















Wow... the back of the postcard is full of stamps and also covered the message. Besides the preprinted flower stamp (60 Fen), there are seven stamps on it. Two Changbaishang stamps (1993-9, 20 Fen and 30 Fen) on the top. Three 1-Yuan definitive bird stamps on the message place (You can lift up the stamp from the left and read the message! Creative of pasting when space is limited!). Another two definitive stamps with the environmental theme (30 Fen + 10 Fen) at the bottom. Altogether is 4.50 Yuan, international airmail rate for postcard. The stamps were stamped in Shanghai Jingan 5 (上海静安 5) on 27.1.2009.
