1902 Mongtze B (Yunnanfu) (19 Dec) to USA. Printer matter cover, f.w. Navigation and Commerce issue surch CHINE with Chinese value, tied by scarce Mongtze B cds. Transit Mongtze French PO (28 Dec), Laokay (4 Jan), Hanoi (11 Jan), Haiphong (12 Jan), Hong Kong (17 Jan). Arrived USA (20 Feb). Smiliar to the Laokay A post, French Indo-China established a post office in Yunnanfu in 1902 without permission from the Chinese Government. It was named Mongtze B to keep a low profile until a permission to set up a post office was granted Sep 1904. Mongtze B was then renamed Yunnanfu. About 20 covers from “Mongtze B” are known to survive. Illustration 9, p. 35 in "The Development of Yunnan Post System 1901-1949" by Mah Lang Moe. 1902.12.19 蒙自B（雲南府）寄美國。印刷品封，貼航海及商貿神像改值CHINE 二仙，銷稀罕之蒙自B法局日戳。12.28經蒙自法局，1.4經老街，1.11經河內，1.12經海防，1.17經香港。2.20抵美國。一如老街A局，法屬印支郵政在未經清政府批准擅自在雲南府設立郵局，在日戳上雋刻地名“蒙自B”以掩人耳目。1904年，清政府才同意法國在雲南府設局，於是改回“雲南府”地名。以“蒙自B” 地名發出的實寄封有20多件，是法國客郵中的罕品。馬蘭茂著《雲南郵政史1901-1949》第35頁圖9原件。《中華郵聯會刊》第二十四期原件。
