History

edit

Between 1949 and 1979, China's stamps featured 56 distinct people who belonged in four categories: ethical and mythical figures, revolutionary martyrs, political figures, and cultural figures.[1] During the same time period, Taiwan had 57 distinct people on its stamps. Four people appeared on both China's stamps and Taiwan's stamps during the time period.[1] They were Sun Yat-sen, the poets Qu Yuan and Du Fu, and Zhan Tianyou, who was the earliest Chinese railroad engineer.[1]

On 1 December 1962, the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications of the People's Republic of China [zh] released a set of eight stamps in its second edition of a collection titled "Ancient Chinese Scientists" (Chinese: 中国古代科学家).[2] On 25 February 1994, the ministry published a four-stamp collection of its second edition of "Patriotic Democrats" (Chinese: 爱国民主人士).[2] The agency issued a four-stamp collection of its second edition of "Modern Chinese Scientists" (Chinese: 中国古代科学家) on 25 May 2011.[2] On 30 September 2014, it released a four-stamp collection titled "Patriotic Democrats" (Chinese: 爱国民主人士).[2] The ministry published the a four-stamp collection of its seventh edition of "Modern Chinese Scientists" (Chinese: 中国现代科学家) on 8 May 2016. Xi'an Evening News  [zh] noted the prevalence of centenarians appearing on the stamps.[2]
