1968 (12 Aug.) "China Philatelic Company" airmail printed matter envelop to London, bearing Chairman Mao Goes to Anyuan 8f.
(W12; uncancelled per regulation), together with Lin Biao Inscription 8f. (W11) and Shajiabang (Symphonic Music Composition)
8f. (W5), very fine and extraordinary usage of this evocative stamp eleven days after its and W11's 1 August issuance. Photo
During the Cultural Revolution, general policy dictated that the stamps were to be designed with wide margins in order that
the postmarks would not touch the portrait of Chairman Mao, such was the respect to be given to him. This issue is particularly
distinctive in that instructions were given that no postmarks were allowed on the stamp; however, this practice crased on 20 October
1968 because of the possibility of uncancelled stamps being fradulently reused.
