成都 - 郵局名加蓋郵票 Overprint with “Chengtu” stamps

​

Chengtu Post Office did not participate in the first overprint (from 21st June to 7th July 1949). All the overprint “Chengtu” stamps were issued during the Second Overprint (24th November to 27th December 1949). The system of restricting usage in the local post offices and the issuing of stamps overprinted with names of Szechwan post offices came to an end with the liberation of Chengtu on 27th December 1949.​ 第一次加蓋(1949年6月21至7月7日) 沒有成都, 所有 “成都” 加蓋郵票都屬於第二次加蓋, 隨著成都在1949.12.27 解放，郵局 名加蓋郵票和限制在本地使用制度也告終結。​
