Hongkong Post announces sale of Mainland, Macao and overseas philatelic products (with photos)
******************************************************************************************
China Post issued special stamps featuring the art piece "The Knickknack Peddler" by painter Li Song of the Song dynasty. The meticulously printed stamps vividly present a scene of a knickknack peddler joyfully welcoming women and children in the street, which perfectly recreate the essence of the painting. In addition, Macao Post and Telecommunications issued a set of stamps on the theme of "Lou Pan Temples", capturing the unique and beautiful historic buildings of the temple and presenting the local culture of worshipping Master Lou Pan.
As for other overseas philatelic products, Royal Mail's "River Wildlife" features 10 animals inhabiting rivers and streams in the United Kingdom, celebrating the remarkable diversity of birds, mammals, insects and fish in the unique natural environment of the country. New Zealand Post's special stamp issue celebrates the 100th anniversary of the independent conservation organisation Forest & Bird. In addition, Isle of Man Post's special stamp issue showcases the natural beauty of glens and waterfalls in the Isle of Man. All these products are highly collectable and should not be missed, especially by philatelists who are fond of nature.
