This 1930s revenue issue from the Republic of China, printed for use in Taiwan, features a finely detailed image of the Ministry of Justice and Administration Building, with surrounding trees, fence lines, and a waving national flag, evoking the authority and symbolism of the legal system. Printed via offset lithography in vivid green and orange tones on unperforated white paper, this imperforate block of four served as a fiscal voucher for judicial fees during litigation procedures. The central cancellation is a classic round judicial seal, legible and sharply struck, emphasizing its valid usage in court. The design includes emblems of national unity such as the Twelve Rays Sun, reinforcing the link between judicial function and republican governance. These stamps were never listed in standard postal catalogues but are documented in revenue collections, especially under court and legal fee categories. This type of fiscal paper reflects both the evolution of early 20th-century Chinese legal administration and the unique blend of bureaucratic function and philatelic artistry. Given the popularity of early ROC legal issues and the intact nature of this used block, with full margins and uniform centering, it holds strong value among specialists of East Asian fiscal history. Estimate "$120 – 160"
