China 1898 Shanghai Wei Hai Wei Courier Post: 2c black/scarlet, SG1China 1898 (8 Dec) Shanghai Wei Hai Wei Courier Post: 2c black scarlet, SG1. A fine unused example. Minor surface abrasions at top but compensated by the fact it is a very large cut example. These primitive stamps were handstamped with Cornabe & Co. chop.
