- Description is exactly "1981 Set of five PRC China postage stamps. "Marking the Gunwale" Series Presentation Folder. Mint. Issued March 10, 1981. £7.19 from Simon Andrews Stamps/The Cecil Court Stamp Shop, London, through eBay, Nov., '02.
This is a favorite fable of mine. It has the right leap from one category to another that sometimes makes a fable take our breath away. I will let the presentation folder tell the fable itself. The other side of the folder identifies the five scenes in the series:
Marking the Gunwale to Find the Sword
Crossing the River
The Sword Dropping into the Water
Marking a Mark on the Gunwale
Jumping into the Water to Find the Sword"
