This 1937 full sheet from Manchukuo features the 2 fen yellow-green issue from the Fourth Definitive series, depicting a rural harvest scene with horse-drawn wagons transporting soybeans, a key export product and economic symbol of the Japanese-controlled puppet state. The design reflects themes of agriculture, labor, and imperial resource extraction, framed beneath the Manchukuo state crest and printed in subtle yellow-green tones. Produced using gravure printing with comb perforation 13 x 13½, the stamp includes a Chinese character watermark in upright orientation and was printed on paper embedded with fine silk threads, a distinctive security feature of the era. The sheet contains 100 mint never hinged stamps with full original gum, showing slight selvage chipping at the corners but no damage to the stamps themselves. Cataloged as Scott MA86, Michel CN-MA 99, Yvert et Tellier CN-MA 91, Stanley Gibbons CN-MA 82, China Stamp Society CN-MA MC83, and Sakura CN-MA 82. This full sheet illustrates the agricultural iconography and production ideology promoted by the Manchukuo regime during its peak under Japanese administration. Estimate "$140 – 170"
