Students Attracted by the Exhibition

Guided by RCCK Shanghai Committee, hosted by RCCK Shanghai Ocean University Branch and Shanghai Ocean University Philatelic Association, and co-organized by the United Front Work Department, Publicity Department, library, and the Trade Union, the exhibition was arranged with 52 display boards. Among them, there were 22 boards for commemorating the victory of Chinese people’s war against Japanese aggression, displaying the stamps from old revolutionary bases during the war, the Republic of China and New China, which, in the form of stamps, post cards, commemorative envelopes and postmarks accompanied with explanatory comments, put Chinese people’s historical deeds against Japanese aggression in actual chronological order and thoroughly demonstrated the historical context and achievements of Chinese people’s great history against Japanese invasion. 

The exhibits on display were all authentic stamps and postmarks. Among the stamp collections, a stamp issued by the USA in 1942 on celebrating the 5th anniversary of the victory of Chinese people’s war against Japanese aggression attracted many philately lovers, showing American support to Chinese people’s war against Japanese invasion and fully demonstrating that Chinese people’s war against Japanese aggression was an integral part of the world’s anti-fascist war. Furthermore, a stamp marked with Taiwan Retrocession Post was also very precious. According to the Cairo Declaration, Taiwan was recovered from Japanese occupation and returned to China. On November 4, 1945, there was no time for Taiwanese people to issue new stamps so that they marked the stamps issued during Japanese occupation with the commemorative postmark Taiwan Retrocession Post to show their happiness for the victory of the war against Japanese aggression and recovery of Taiwan.
