I was asked if there is any philatelic material related on the sham battle of the Japanese army resident in China(Kanto-gun)
As far as I know, there is no stamps, postcards etc. directly related on this event and I suggested military posts posted by someone who took part in the battle. Mr.K. who asked I for such materials is making a website of USSR, Russia and northern district and wanted to explain that USSR's entry to the war was legal. He was using the precedent of the Military Tribunal for the Far East but said it is not satisfactory.
As for the philatelic era, it is equivalent to later Tazawa to second Showa series.
Most of the cancellations stamped on military posts have 3 stars at "C" space. The so-called Comb cancel can be divided in 5 parts, A to E.
space A: the name of the post office space B: date space C: hours
This "space C" is replaced to 3 stars and moreover, because of the military secret, names of the places seldom adopted as the names of the post offices and omitted like "The 33rd regiment", "The 5th field", etc.
It is still under investigation about how many/what kind of post office existed, and for how long, during the war.
