3048 因內戰松口成為郵件的轉運中心 Tsungkow as the mailing route due to war​ ​ 以下實寄封顯示1949年八至十月由激烈的內戦阻塞了部分郵路，松口由於它地處韓江上游（汕頭在韓江下游）及解放日 期早（1949.8.16）成為轉運中心。​ ​ Mailed on 2nd October 1949 from Tsungkow (49.08.16), 13th October transit via Kaohsiung, 19th October 19 transit via Swatow (49.10.24), arrived in Hong Kong on 12th November for forwarding to Japan. The letter was unable to deliver to the recipient in Japan and was returned to the sender. The cover was affixed with one Domestic Unit stamp, yet Tsungkow Military Control Commission accepted as postage for international mail. Also, as indicated in Lot 3055, the postal routing between Tsungkow was blocked during October/November 1949. This letter therefore had to route through Kaohsiung. Both Swatow and Kaohsiung were Koumintang Controlled Area, yet their post offices were willing to handle mail from Liberated area. This is a special case of Communist/Nationalist postal cooperation.​ 1949年10月2日從松口 (49.08.16) 寄, 10月13日經基隆,10月19日經汕頭 (49.10.24), 11月12日到香港, 寄往日本, 因無法投遞, 退 回原處。此封上貼國內平倍單位票一枚, 而松口軍管會竟然容許作為支付國際郵資, 正如 #1049 封指出，十、十一月韓江 郵路阻塞，此信要通過髙雄才能寄抵汕頭, 當時汕頭和高雄皆屬國統區, 這兩地郵局對解放發來的郵件, 競然努力處理。這 是國共通郵的特例。​ HK$ 18,000 - 20,000
