This 1907 definitive stamp from the French post offices in China features a 5 centime green stamp of the classic Type Blanc design, overprinted with a new black denomination of 2 cents and a Chinese character surcharge. The central image by Joseph Blanc and engraved by Emile Thomas depicts allegorical figures of Liberty and Justice in flowing robes, accompanied by scales and a laurel wreath, expressing themes of order and enlightenment rooted in the French Third Republic. Issued to accommodate the Chinese currency system, the bilingual surcharge reflects the administrative necessity of adapting colonial French postage to local markets. Printed typographically and perforated 14 x 13½, the stamp measures 20 x 24 mm and is part of a broader set adapted for French post offices across treaty ports in China. This used example shows a partial circular postmark and remains clean on the reverse, with minor hinge marks. It is catalogued as Scott FR-CH 57, Michel FR-CH 31I, Yvert 75, and Stanley Gibbons 76, and stands as a refined example of cross-cultural postal adaptation in early 20th-century East Asia.
